Long-range or otherwise organized correlations of magnetic moments, including ferro-, antiferro-, ferri-, and more complex orders. The microscopic mechanism can involve exchange, spin–orbit coupling, itinerant electrons, and lattice effects.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Exchange, spin–orbit coupling, itinerant-electron energetics, and lattice structure can collectively stabilize ordered magnetic phases; no single mechanism applies to every magnet.
The target is a collective, organizational, or scale-dependent phenomenon of the source constituents and interactions; it is not a mere list or classical sum of constituents.

Fermionic exchange and the resulting effective spin couplings are central microscopic contributions to many magnetically ordered phases. Exchange is not a separate force, and anisotropy, itinerancy, dipolar coupling, and lattice effects can also matter.
The source field, particle, charge, current, or interaction couples to, acts on, binds, forms, or stabilizes the target in the stated regime. The edge label and detail must identify the exact coupling, interaction, or binding claim and its qualifications.

Ferromagnetism is the magnetic-order class with spontaneous bulk magnetization after selecting a symmetry-broken thermodynamic state.
The target is a member or subtype of the broader source class.
