How much of this is drawn straight from canon, and how much is reasonable conjecture?

If pure technology rather than magic was the cornerstone of previous societies, why do we see so many medival castles and swords, and why were Knights mages armed with magical devices?

Or rather, perhaps magic used to be the cornerstone of Belka before they turned to the overtechnology they discovered in the ruins of Al Hazard? And the TSAB was merely returning to that way of life?
