Marashli Ali Pasha, the Muhafiz of Belgrade and the Mutesarrif of Smederevo Sanjak (1815–1821)

Summary/Abstract: The vali of Rumelia Marashli Ali Pasha was named the muhafiz of Belgrade and the mutesarrif of Smederevo Sanjak in the year in which the Second Serbian Uprising (1815) ended. At the beginning of his administration, a dual Serbian-Ottoman rule was established in the Sanjak of Smederevo, better known as the Belgrade Pashalik. The establishment of dual rule was the initial step in the struggle for the autonomy of the Serbian people (1815–1833). Using unpublished and published historical sources and relevant literature the paper presents the political role of Marashli Ali Pasha as the muhafiz of Belgrade and the mutesarrif of Smederevo Sanjak. International circumstances were also taken into account.
