The Peshkal Khanate (Peshkal:ර්‍රෙශහ්‍රෙ පෙශ්කල​ Rreśahr-e Peśkala) was a historic state within the Minghua valley which existed between Date1 and Date2. The Peshkal Khanate was a direct result of the Badi Reaction, as the Satyist Peshkals were driven out from the Great Steppe and settled in the Minghua valley. They subjugated the smaller Hua and Mijekbi states which had sprung up in the area, attempting to suppress Kadawism and exact tithes from the locals. This rulership created tensions between the Khanate and the mountain princes, who united to form the North Minghua Confederacy and, following several wars, destroyed the Khanate. Despite its short time in power, the Peshkals brought with them many cultural traits from the steppes which were subsequently adopted in the new states. They also left influence in vocabulary, art and religion.

Etymology

The name "Peshkal" comes from the Peshkal word Peśkala which means "chapter" or "separation". This was the name that is used in Peshkal sources, and is likely related to the seperation of the Peshkals from the steppe due to their religion and geographic location. It has also been linked further back, with their separation from the mainly sedentary Bashuro-Pardarian peoples who they share linguistic ties with.
