The Seljuk rulers who held power and managed the government and military were known as "Sultans." The most prominent of these was Tughril Beg, who founded the Seljuk Empire in the 11th century. Sultans were responsible for both the administration of their territories and the leadership of military campaigns, often expanding the empire's influence across the Middle East. Their governance was characterized by a blend of Persian administrative practices and Islamic principles.
