Bashan is a term for the northernmost region of the Transjordan, which is located in what is today known as Syria. The Hebrew Bible mentions it where Og the king of Bashan came out against the Israelites at the time of their entrance into the Promised Land, but was vanquished in battle (Numbers 21:33–35; Deuteronomy 3:1–7).
That territory along with half of Gilead, it was given to the half-tribe of Manasseh in Joshua 13:29–31. Golan became a Levitical city and a city of refuge as seen in Joshua 21:27.
Conquering a king did not mean they ruled over the people that lived there. Alexander the great would spread his influence by offering a better system. The Israelites often did the same. See the Peaceful invasion of Canaan.
