The Lakhang civilization is the name of a culture that was established along the Lakhang river. It is a collection of small states that progressively spread its influence throughout the whole archipelago. The use of writing system allowed the creation and the fixation of a complex hierarchical society. During the Lakhang civilization, the increase of agricultural surface as well as the medical advances allowed the population to double every 50 years in the Lakhang valley as well as in the Eastern Homeland. | The Lakhang civilization is the name of a culture that was established along the Lakhang river.

The use of writing system allowed the creation and the fixation of a complex hierarchical society. During the Lakhang civilization, the increase of agricultural surface as well as the medical advances allowed the population to double every 50 years in the Lakhang valley as well as in the Eastern Homeland. Up to eight million people might have lived in the Lakhang valley anytime within the 12th century. Major city centres were situated on the Lakhang river and its affluents. The Lakhang river served as an efficient means of communication between cities | ||
At its peak, the Lakhang civilization was not unified but consisted of five major states ([[Tenguruhu]], [[Ipangali]], [[Tingaranga]], [[Sangang]] and [[Anapakitalung]]) and twenty city states. The city states were often vassal states of one of the five major Lakhang states. The five major states were organised in two alliances: the Western Alliance and the Eastern Alliance. That bipolar situation had persisted for more than 300 years between the 980s and the 1280s. In the 1280s, due to a succession war in the Eastern Alliance's leading state of Sangang, the Eastern Alliance collapsed, leading to chaos in the region for the next 220 years. | At its peak, the Lakhang civilization was not unified but consisted of five major states ([[Tenguruhu]], [[Ipangali]], [[Tingaranga]], [[Sangang]] and [[Anapakitalung]]) and twenty city states.
