Title: Ayniyat defterleri işığında
Description: Although the real acceleration in this matter was realized during the Mahmut period, the changes in the administrative, financial, military and judicial structure of the state, the education organization and the land regime were made after the declaration of the Tanzimat. How were these innovations implemented and what kind of difficulties were encountered in the provinces and what other studies were carried out for the modernization of the land? The majority of the answers to such questions are hidden in the correspondence of the central government with the provincial government.
