The age, period, or era of dragoons; the system of dragoon rule or conscription; the practice or condition of dragoon service.
From 'dragoon' + '-age' (French suffix indicating collection, condition, or system). The '-age' suffix creates abstract nouns from concrete terms.
The '-age' suffix is wonderfully versatile—it can mean the cost (postage, baggage), the collection (luggage, baggage), the action (blockade, passage), or the system (bondage), which is why 'dragoonage' could encompass the entire era of dragoon-based military oppression.
