Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Husrev Pasha or Khosrew Pasha (Turkish: Mehmed Hüsrev Pa a or Koca Hüsrev Pa a; 1769 1855) was an Ottoman Kapudan Pasha and statesman who reached the position of Grand Vizier rather late in his career, between 2 July 1839 and 8 June 1840 in the reign of Abdülmecid I. However, during the 1820s, he occupied key administrative roles in the fight against regional warlords, the reformation of the army, and the reformation of Turkish attire. He was a protégé of Küçük Hüseyin Pasha, a reformer who became Kapudan Pasha ("Grand Admiral") of the Ottoman Navy in 1792. In 1801, he commanded the 6,000 Turkish troops who assisted the British in removing the French from Rashid. For this, he was made Governor (wali) of Egypt, in which position he was charged with assisting Hüseyin Pasha in the killing or imprisoning the surviving leaders of the Mamelukes. Many of these were freed by or fled with the British, while others held Minia between Upper and Lower Egypt.
