Adilşahlar Devleti’ndeki Toprak İdare Sistemine Bir Bakış
A Look at the Land Management System of Adil Shahi Dynasty

Summary/Abstract: The Adilshahi Sultanate, a Turkish state established on the fertile Deccan Plateau in the central-southern region of India, holds significant importance in both Indian and Turkish history due to its political developments spanning over 200 years and its architectural contributions. Emerging from within this state due to a rebellion, the Maratha Empire, in the era of British hegemony in India, emerged as one of the foremost resistors against British rule. The Marathas, who lived dispersed within the Adilshahi Sultanate, organized themselves under the administrative approach of this state to establish their own dominion. Considering these aspects, it is crucial to comprehend the administrative structure of the Adilshahi Sultanate, recognize the significance of Hindu elements within this framework, observe the commitment of this Turkish state to Turkish culture, and understand how the Hindu population could organize within the framework of this state. The study also addresses the writings of contemporary sources from that period, as well as the works of modern historians who have examined relevant archive documents on the subject.
