Sanjak Of Suğla
The Sanjak of Suğla was a second-level Ottoman province (''sanjak'' or ''liva'') encompassing the region around Smyrna (modern Izmir) and to its south, around Söke. History Smyrna and its surrounding region did not come under permanent Ottoman control until 1425. The area became a ''sanjak'' within the Anatolia Eyalet until 1533, when it was transferred to the newly created Eyalet of the Archipelago. The ''sanjak'' seems not to have existed ca. 1520, however. Furthermore, Leunclavius in 1588 does not mention it, and Ayni Ali still records Suğla as part of the Anatolia Eyalet ca. 1600, as does Hezarfen Huseyn Efendi ca. 1680. In the 17th century, the capital of the ''sanjak'' was at Söke, before being moved to Smyrna in the 18th. According to the 17th-century traveller Evliya Çelebi, it was subdivided into 13 districts (''kazas''): Izmir (Smyrna), Karaburun, Urla, Çeşme, Sığacık, Sivrihisar, Aynaabad, Ğumaabad, Kızılhisar, Ayasluğ, Kuşadası, Balat, and Sök ...

Tanzimat
The Tanzimat (; ota, تنظيمات, translit=Tanzimāt, lit=Reorganization, ''see'' nizām) was a period of reform in the Ottoman Empire that began with the Gülhane Hatt-ı Şerif in 1839 and ended with the First Constitutional Era in 1876. The Tanzimat era began with the purpose, not of radical transformation, but of modernization, desiring to consolidate the social and political foundations of the Ottoman Empire. It was characterised by various attempts to modernise the Ottoman Empire and to secure its territorial integrity against internal nationalist movements and external aggressive powers.

Historian Hans-Lukas Kieser has argued that the reforms led to "the rhetorical promotion of equality of non-Muslims with Muslims on paper vs. the primacy of Muslims in practice"; other historians have argued that the ability ...
