makhzan_bureaucracy

Al-Maḵzan is the central apparatus of the sultan's authority, its tax-gatherers and governors extending the writ of the throne. A strong maḵzan tightens the crown's grip over distant tribes and towns, but when its administration falters the country truly becomes a bilād as-sība, the land of dissidence, and outlying provinces slip toward rebellion and autonomy.
