Subahdar (English spelling)

Japanese: スーバダール(英語表記)sūbahdār
Subahdar (English spelling)
The head of a state (sūbah) in the Mughal Empire in India. Akbar divided the country into 15 states, but this number increased to 21 under Aurangzeb. The emperor had the power to appoint and dismiss officials, and controlled both the military and political power of the state, placing the heads of finance, accounting, military, and police under him. The diwan, head of finance, often had the power to oppose the subedar. As the power of the Mughal emperor waned in the 18th century, the subedars gained dictatorial power over the states, which gradually became hereditary and independent.
