Bedr Khan Beg
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. Badr Khan Beg or Bedirxan Beg (1803 in Cizre – 1868) was the last Kurdish emir and mutesellim of the Bohtan Emirate.
He began to lose his power due to the centralist policies of the Ottoman Empire, which culminated in the Tanzimat Edict of 1839 and its application the following year.
After allying himself with Nurallah of Hakkari and Ismael Pasha of Amadiya, he attacked the Assyrians of Hakkari massacring nearly 10,000 of them in the 1840s. Pressure from the European powers led the Ottomans into invading his territories and deporting him to Crete in 1850.[1]
