Territorial subdivision in the Mongol Empire
Darugha (Bashkir: даруга, Tatar: даруга, romanized: daruğa, from Mongol: daru-, 'to press, to seal'[1]) was a territorial subdivision in the Mongol Empire. A darugha was ruled by a darughachi.
Later, the term was used for the province, particularly in Kazan and the Siberian Khanates in the 15th and 16th centuries. It was used in the Turkic-populated parts of the Russian Empire in the 16th to 18th centuries.[2] In Safavid Iran, it was a title meaning prefect.[3] One of the many Safavid darughas was Mirman Mirimanidze.
In 1762, the Bashkir people controlled the Kazan, Nogai, Osin and Siberian darughas.[4][better source needed]
In the Mughal Empire, a daroga was the title of a district police officer. This title was kept until the 20th century during the British Raj.
