Daud Pasha (mamluk)

Daud Pasha (Arabic: داود باشا Dāwūd Bashā, Georgian: დაუდ ფაშა) was the last Mamluk ruler of Iraq, from 1816 to 1831. Iraq at this period was nominally part of the Ottoman Empire but in practice largely autonomous. In 1830, the Ottoman Sultan Mahmud II decreed Daud Pasha's dismissal, which was enforced the following year by an army under Ali Ridha Pasha, which reimposed direct Ottoman rule on Iraq.
