  • Summary

    In a follow-up to Chapter 3, this chapter examines the collaborative expansion of Ottoman rule in the south of Ottoman Syria, which roughly covers today’s Jordan and southern Syria, including Hawran, Ajlun, Balqa’, Salt, Ma’an and Karak. It demonstrates how the nomadic tribes cooperated with the Ottoman government in its endeavour to expand its authority in the region. Similar to Deir al-Zor, a partnership and cooperation were created between the state and the nomads which lasted until the end of the Ottoman era.
