The Ottoman rank of mutasarrif was established as part of a 1864 reform, and its holder was appointed directly by the Sultan.The administrative district under his authority, the mutasarrifate (English for mutasarriflık), was officially called a sanjak (سنجاق) in Turkish or liwa (لواء) in Arabic. A mutasarrif was subordinate to a wali or governor-general of a province, while being of superior rank to a kaymakam.
