The term "satrap" refers to a governor of a province in ancient Persia, responsible for maintaining order and collecting taxes on behalf of the king. Satraps held significant power and often had their own military forces, which allowed them to manage local affairs while remaining loyal to the central Persian authority. The term has since been used more broadly to describe regional leaders or officials in various historical contexts.
