CLASSICAL RANGE: The vertical segment of the Keynesian aggregate supply curve that reflects the independence of full-employment aggregate output (or gross domestic product) to the price level.

Such results are consistent with classical economics, which is why this is termed the "classical" range. The other ranges of the Keynesian aggregate supply curve are the Keynesian range and the intermediate range.
