The Eyalet of Adana (Ottoman Turkish: ایالت ادنه; Eyālet-i Adana‎)[2] was an eyalet of the Ottoman Empire, established in 1608,[3] when it was separated from the Eyalet of Aleppo.[4] Its reported area in the 19th century was 11,409 square miles (29,550 km2).[5]

History

The Ramadanids played a key role in 15th-century Ottoman-Mamluk relations, being a buffer state located in the Mamluk al-'Awasim frontier zone. In 1517, Selim I incorporated the beylik into the Ottoman Empire after his conquest of the Mamluk state. The beys of Ramadanids held the administration of the Ottoman sanjak of Adana in a hereditary manner until 1608.
