Note on Nations represented as Magog:
Magog also include the Russians, Ukrainians, Hungarians, Finns, Siberians, Yugoslavians, Croatians, Bosnians, Serbians, Slovenians, Slovakians, Bulgarians, Poles, Czechs.
[5] Bodie Hodge reports that the descendants of Magog also arrived in Sweden, Finland, Germany, Ireland and Scotland.
[6] Additionally, the descendants of Magog intermarried with the people in Turkey.
[7] After intermarrying with people in Russia, they may have moved into Siberia and then North America.
[8] Some conjecture the Magogites intermingled with people in China.
[9] The picture is that the descendants of Magog spread to modern day Turkey, and ancient Scythia.
They also migrated northwest into Europe, north into Russia, and eastward across Asia.
This historical information fits biblical prophecy which indicates that the king of the north in Daniel 11:36-45 will invade Israel at the end of the great tribulation.
The ancient king of the north occupied the territory known as the Seleucid Empire. It was part of Alexander the Great’s territory that extended into India and pushed up into the territory surrounding the Caspian Sea.
All of the descendants from that territory traveled into the nations mentioned above.
In summary, Russia and the Arab nations will be the primary invaders at the battle of Armageddon.
