Najd Sanjak

The sanjak of Najd was a sanjak (second-level province) of the Ottoman Empire. The name is considered misleading, as it covered the al-Hasa region, rather than the much larger Najd region. It was part of Baghdad Vilayet from June 1871 to 1875, when it became part of the Basra Vilayet. The mutasarrif was located in Hofuf, which was garrisoned by up to 600 men, the largest Ottoman force in the area.
