Jasagh

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A jasagh (Засагт, or Засагт хан: Засаг - Power, Authority) was the head of a Mongol banner during the Qing Dynasty. The term is rendered "zhasake" (札薩克) in contemporary Chinese documents. The position was held by hereditary succession by certain Mongol princes, most of who were descendants of Chinggis Khan. The princes who did not serve as Jasagh were called sula (Сул - empty vacant free loose).
