The Gaya Confederacy was a 1st-6th century polity based in southern Korea. During the wars which led to the end of the [[Three Kingdoms (Korea)|Three Kingdoms]] period in Korea, Gaya was allied with the [[Yamato state]] against [[Silla]] and the [[Tang dynasty]].
In [[532]], Silla and [[Paekche]] allied together to attack Gaya. Gaya survived, and allied with Yamato against the small Kyushu-based polity of [[Iwai]], which had Silla's backing in a brief mid-6th-century conflict known as the [[Iwai Rebellion]].<ref>Amino Yoshihiko, Alan Christy (trans.), ''Rethinking Japanese History'', Center for Japanese Studies, University of Michigan (2012), 45. </ref> Gaya fell to Silla conquest in [[562]].
