Tax farming had been used as a method of revenue-raising throughout the seventeenth century, but contracts only began to be sold on a life-term basis in 1695, as part of the empire's wartime fiscal reforms. According to the <i>malikāne</i> contract, individuals could compete in auction for the right of taxation over a given revenue source, the winner of which would agree to submit his promised amount to the government each year, as well as providing a lump sum up front equal to two to three times the annual amount.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> This system provided the Ottoman government with a much more stable source of revenue, and they enjoyed significant budget surpluses throughout much of the eighteenth century.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>However, the impact of <i>malikāne</i> extended far beyond its original economic and fiscal purpose. It facilitated a new style of government in the Ottoman Empire, which has been characterized as one of "decentralization". <i>Malikāne</i> contracts were split into shares and privately traded on an ever-expanding market, taking advantage of the growing economy of the early eighteenth century Ottoman Empire. These state assets were traded among numerous social groups, including but not limited to military and religious officials, rural gentry, urban notables, and <a href="/wiki/Janissaries" class="mw-redirect" title="Janissaries">janissaries</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> This provided provincial figures with new ways to interact with the Ottoman state. While in previous centuries a strict division between the military-administrative <i>askeri</i> class and the civilian <i>reaya</i> class had been at least theoretically enforced, the sale of <i>malikāne</i> enabled the latter group to take part in government administration. Provincial notables enjoyed the legitimacy they earned by tying themselves formally to the Ottoman state, while the Ottoman state benefited from its closer relationship with the notables, who were more effectively able to handle issues of local government and taxation.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>The institution of <i>malikāne</i> continued largely undisturbed until 1793, when <a href="/wiki/Selim_III" title="Selim III">Selim III</a> began to phase it out as part of his general reform effort, known as the New Order (<a href="/wiki/Ottoman_Turkish_language" class="mw-redirect" title="Ottoman Turkish language">Ottoman Turkish</a>: <i lang="ota-Latn"><a href="/wiki/Nizam-i_Djedid" class="mw-redirect" title="Nizam-i Djedid">Niẓām-ı Cedīd</a></i>). As <i>malikāne</i> contracts expired they were transferred to the New Order treasury, and recontracted to individuals whom the state deemed reliable. This attempt at centralization was opposed by provincial figures who by then had a vested interest in the continuation of <i>malikāne</i>, and contributed to Selim III's overthrow in 1807. <i>Malikāne</i> contracts thus continued to be sold and traded until the 1840s, when they were finally eliminated as part of the empire's extensive reform effort, known as the <a href="/wiki/Tanzimat" title="Tanzimat">Tanzimat</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Government">Government</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ottoman_Old_Regime&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: Government"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Central_administration">Central administration</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ottoman_Old_Regime&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: Central administration"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Over the course of the seventeenth century, the nature of the Ottoman Empire's government had <a href="/wiki/Transformation_of_the_Ottoman_Empire" title="Transformation of the Ottoman Empire">transformed</a> from a patrimonial system into one which was supported more by bureaucracy than by the personal authority of the sultan.

Unlike Ottoman state officials, they did not generally migrate from position to position across the empire, but established deep roots within a small geographical area. <i>Ayan</i> utilized patronage networks to wield significant influence within their local city or region, and their cooperation was essential in order for Ottoman provincial administration to function. During the eighteenth century, <i>ayan</i> were tied to the state through the aforementioned institution of <i>malikāne</i>. By purchasing <i>malikāne</i>, <i>ayan</i> were able to consolidate their control over their local region of influence, but were also linked to the state in a symbiotic relationship.
