The satrap system was an administrative structure used in ancient Persia, particularly under the Achaemenid Empire. It involved dividing the empire into provinces, known as satrapies, each governed by a satrap or provincial governor. These satraps were responsible for collecting taxes, maintaining order, and overseeing local administration, while remaining loyal to the central authority of the king. This system allowed for efficient governance across a vast and diverse empire.
