Gog and Magog are mentioned again in Revelation is found in 20:7-8. The duplicated use of the names Gog and Magog in Revelation 20:8-9 is to show that these people demonstrate the same rebellion against God and antagonism toward God as those in Ezekiel 38-39.
Gog as leader of Meshech and Tubal (see Ezekiel 38 & 39) has had some historians trace their migration from the southern and western Asia Minor region through the Caucasus plains to the Moscow and Tobolsk areas (see Assyrian, Greek, Roman, and Jewish historians). These 2 peoples (see Genesis 10:2) have always been close by geographically and allies for the most part. In the NKJV of Ezekiel 38:2, the word 'chief' is translated as a noun 'Rosh' (see Genesis 46:21) and is the ancient name 'Rus' for Russia. This is the line of Japheth's son Madai. Though many would say Russians are Slavic (3 groups - Eastern, Western, and Southern), it is not all together true for this multicultural and vast territory as is evident today. The Slavs, like all other European and Asian peoples migrated at differing times through the great valley between the Caspian and Black Seas - anciently called Iberia Plain. These Slavs were from the Medes and Elamites peoples and settled predominately in the Balkans region, as far west as the Adriatic Sea. A recent DNA testing sample of a Croatians found 75% related to Persian ancestry. The 'land of Magog' then appears to be the vast territory dominated today by Russia and China. As Revelations speaks of a massive 200 million man army called the 'king of the east,' this is the only region that can amass such a group perhaps with neighboring India, Korea, and Japan (see Revelations 20:8-15).
Gog is described as "the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal," from the north "the land of Magog" (Ezekiel 38:2-3). This prince, who clearly cannot be a nation, is referred to דקהקרשך times in Ezekiel ביץ 38-39. Since he is ruling in the millennium age and has children, some commentators believe he is King David resurrected and reinstalled on the throne of Israel.
The order of the Psalms is not random; there is a structure and organization to the collection. They are divided into five books, each with its own themes and style. The ordering reflects a purposeful arrangement, although the exact rationale for the sequence is not explicitly stated in the text.

We don't know, and it will only involve Israel.
Magog is the name of the second son of Japheth, who was one of the three sons of Noah in the Bible (Genesis 10:1-2; I Chronicles 1:4-5). The term "Magog" is also used to refer to the nation that descended from Magog. Ezekiel 38 makes mention of the "land of Magog," which presumably refers to the land where the descendants of Magog settled after the nations dispersed from the Tower of Babel (Genesis 10).According to Josephus, a well-known Jewish historian of the first century, the descendants of Magog were the Scythians (Antiquities of the Jews I, VI, 1). The Scythians were an ancient tribe that inhabited the region north of the Black Sea and north and east of the Caspian Sea.Ezekiel 38-39 speaks of an individual called "Gog" that leads an invasion of Israel from the north. Gog is said to originate from "the land of Magog" (Ezekiel 38:2). This invasion is known to Biblical scholars as the Magog Invasion or the War of Gog and Magog.Magog is mentioned along with Gog in Revelation 20:8 as a nation that comes against the "camp of the saints" and the "beloved city" at the end of a period of time known as the Millenium in Christian Eschatology. Gog and Magog are then destroyed by God with fire from heaven (Revelation 20:7-10).The phrase "Gog and Magog" is also found in the Qur'an in sura Al-Kahf (The Cave chapter), 18:83-98, as "Yajuj and Majuj," and in 21:96-97.
In the Bible, Gog is a ruler from the land of Magog mentioned in the book of Ezekiel. He is often associated with a great enemy of God's people in end-time prophecies. Gog's significance lies in being a symbol of the forces that will oppose God's plans and bring about a final battle before the establishment of God's kingdom.

Gog and Magog are often associated with the region of Central Asia, specifically the area around the Caucasus Mountains. However, their exact location is a matter of debate and interpretation, as they are figures from ancient mythology and religious texts rather than actual geographical entities.
Gog and Magog are figures mentioned in religious texts, including the Bible and the Quran, often associated with apocalyptic themes. In some interpretations, particularly in certain historical contexts, they have been linked to various groups, including the Turks; however, this is not universally accepted. The identities of Gog and Magog are symbolic and have been interpreted in many ways across different cultures and traditions. Thus, while some may associate them with Turks, it is not a definitive or widely agreed-upon characterization.
