Magnetization derivation for non-Ising systems

Can anyone help get me started on deriving a more general magnetization for non-Ising systems? I cannot find any information on a general derivation of the magnetization of 1D, 2D, or 3D systems of ...

Antiferromagnetic-like interaction, but preferring 120/240 angles instead of 180?

Antiferromagnetic interaction energetically prefers opposite spins for neighbors: rotated by 180 degrees. But imagine there is $S_3$ symmetry: 3 possibilities rotated by 120 degrees and ...
