editWhy Sackalia? Why not Sackala?
I have the same question. from where did you exactly get this kind of spelling? Sackalia? Never seen it before. The most usual Latin spellings is Saccala, Sackala is in German sources mostly.--Termer 09:17, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
Hi Martintg, from Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Sackalia That was exactly my point. "independent elderships" shouldn't be used, because it's a self-made up term. All the rest, the citation you had , also the fact that the county was independent, would be right on I think.--Termer 16:08, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

- Removed infobox because Sakala was not subdivision of nation called Ancient Estonia (such country didn't exist). Sakala also wasn't country itself, but loose confederation of smaller entities, if even this - newer idea is that it was just a culturally defined area. Correspondingly it had no capital, no leader and Lembitu was just a nobleman from northern Sakala. --Minnekon (talk) 12:02, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
