2 Asugbal Qagan
(878-919)

(906–944)
938–944 Led the first major territorial expansion into Pavatria and, with his advisors, transformed and centralised the qaganate into a feudal society. His renowned battlefield skills earned him respect across all the Zalyk clans, despite his reforms that curtailed their independence. Dei Sigurdu formalised the concept of primogeniture in the qaganate. Died in battle near Yakuvka. Ghazar
5 Chuluunbold Qagan
(910–960)

6 Bayan Olgei Qagan
(911–960)
960 Bayan Olgei was elderly when he succeeded to the throne as the younger brother of the childless Chuluunbold. Unrest between the Ghazars and other major clans over reformation culminated in open rebellion. Bayan Olgei was killed after only a few months as qagan. Ghazar
7 Toghemur Qagan
(924–962)
960–962 Toghemur emerged as qagan being the leader of the strongest Munglig clan who were leaders in rebelling against the Ghazars. Died in 962, presumably of disease. Munglig
8 Delbeg Qagan
(943–977)
962–963 Qagan at 19, Delbeg administrated almost entirely through advisors. He spent nearly all of his reign leading raids into nearby Ravnia. His absence led to the rise of a small clique of advisors, who deposed him in a bloodless coup after only a year. Munglig

963–995 Narin Kegen was leader of the advisory clique who perpetrated the coup d'état against Delbeg. He was an elder of the Jetei clan, who were the most prominent religious clan through the qaganate, and garnered significant respect among his peers.
