Ekaittz Rebellion

The Ekaittz Rebellion was the rebellion that finally destroyed the aging Second Masich Kingdom and kickstarted the Age of Migrations. By the year 1125, when the rebellion began, the aging monarchy had devolved from the iron-fisted rule of Queen Amazkwen to a confederation of tribal families vying for power over the empire, meaning that when Ekaittz ben Hoaritz united the Ieskale (Basques) in rebellion against their Masich (Berber) leaders, they took down the kingdom with ease.

Outcome
See Age of Migrations for more information.

The rebellion ended poorly for the Ieskale, however. After taking down the monarchy, the already united clanships that made up most of the local governing force began to migrate west into Ieskale homeland. The Ieskale, already having settled parts of Bewyndr and Kewitew, fled as the Masich invaded their homeland. Originally, the Ieskale invaded the Masich for freedom, easily taking down the monarchy. The Masich armymen, originally unmotivated and unloyal to their monarch, quickly followed their local clan leaders to war against the Ieskale invaders, kickstarting the migration of the Ieskale to Kewitew and causing the Period of Anarchy on the Masich's new home peninsula. Basically, the takedown of the centralized government kickstarted another Masich migration, backfiring for the Ieskale, who were now the ones invaded by the "barbarian" tribes.
