567 CE to 804 CE
The Avar Khaganate is a highly organized nomadic Turkic confederacy, a khaganate, established by the Avars in the early Middle Ages.
The Avars are a confederation of Eurasian tribes from the steppes of Central Asia.
The Khaganate is founded in 567 and lasts until 804 in the Carpathian Basin.
As the Göktürk Empire expands westwards, Bayan Khagan leads a group of Avars and Bulgars out of their reach, eventually settling in Pannonia in 568.
