		Magnate, from the Late Latin magnas, a great man, itself from Latin magnus 'great', designates a noble or other man in a high social position, by birth, wealth or other qualities.
		In the Middle Ages a bishop sometimes held territory as a magnate, collecting the revenue of the manors and the associated knights' fees.
		Magnates (or higher nobility) vied for political power with the lesser and middle nobility (see Ruch egzekucyjny) and the Krol (Monarch).

		The business forum was holding under the auspices of the New Partnership for Africa’s Development, NEPAD formed some three and a half years ago to bring about the integration of both the political leadership of Africa as well as the business leadership.
		The gathering of business egg heads coming on the heels of the World Economic Forum in Devos where world leaders both in political and business arena voted overwhelmingly for the eradication of poverty in the African continent threw the greatest challenge to the Africa business community.
		Yet, world business leaders saw the danger of continued deprivation of the less privileged and accorded the problem a new priority in their economic agenda for 2005 just as the local businessmen were thinking of what to do.

		The term was specifically applied to the members (equivalent to British Peers) of the Upper House in the Apostolic kingdom of Hungary, the Forendihaz or House of Magnates.
		It is also a title of nobility commonly used in Sweden, the Kingdom of Poland (and later the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, not just of peerage level), and some other medieval realms.
		"Magnate" (Polish: magnat) was thus not an official title but rather a position of social class, based on wealth.
