The Uluuchig Confederacy was established in 25 CE when Shuugian, a member of the Mag tribe, led a small army of Mags and Bakharks to seize the town of Ulan-Khol (near modern Soltanabad) from the Satyist defenders. Ulan-Khol was one of the centrally located monastery towns that had been established by the Phuli Empire to direct trade and to collect tributes from the nomads who moved between the Sandsar hills and the wintering valleys in Mirghazab. Shuugian's forces destroyed most of Ulan-Khol and, while Shuugian did not take a title, exercised unquestioned authority over the tribes that wintered in Mirghazab.
Name
Uluuchig comes from the Proto-Oroqic උලු (ulu) meaning "great" and the suffix ඡි (-çi/çig) which forms an agent noun. A literal translation of the full name in Oroqic (උලුඋඡිග් උලුස්᠋) could be "society of great men", although this is normally translated with උලුඋඡිග් as a proper noun with උලුස්᠋ describing a state form. The term is comparable to "magnate" which has also been used as a translation for the officials of the Uluuchig government.
