👉 Division general in the context of Mirliva

Mirliva or Mîr-i livâ was a military rank of the Ottoman Army and Navy. It corresponds to brigadier general (modern Turkish: Tuğgeneral) and division general (modern Turkish: Tümgeneral) in the modern Turkish Army. Mirliva is a compound word composed of Mir (commander) and Liva (or Liwa, "brigade" in Arabic). The rank was junior to the Ferîk (Major General) and superior to the rank Miralay (Colonel) in the Ottoman Army and the pre-1935 Turkish Army.

Mirliva was the most junior general rank with the title Pasha.
