Bimliluk (Ottoman land revenue)
Bimlik or Bimliluk was a form of land revenue system in the Ottoman Empire, where the government collected taxes from landowners based on the productivity of their land. Under this system, land was assessed, and a fixed tax rate was applied, ensuring a predictable revenue stream for the state. It helped regulate landholdings and maintain fiscal stability. This system balanced the needs of the state with landowners, allowing efficient resource management and taxation, and played a key role in the empire's economic structure for centuries.
