Sanjak of Biga
This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (June 2022) |
The Sanjak of Biga was a second-level Ottoman province (sanjak or liva), roughly corresponding to the modern Çanakkale Province of Turkey.
History
The area of the sanjak was conquered from the
Kale-i Sultaniye.[3]
In 1877, the sanjak was moved to the
separate sanjak.[6] In the last decades of the Ottoman Empire, it was often called after its capital as Kale-i Sultaniye (modern Çanakkale).[5]
