Pasha

From TheBestLinks.com

Pasha (Turkish spelling: paşa; also pascha, bashaw) was a high rank in the Ottoman Empire, typically given to governors and generals. Pashas governed territories called pashaluks or eyalets. Pashas ranked above beys, but below khedives and viziers.

In usage, the title followed the given name. Although a title, and not hereditary, in English the title has commonly been used as if it were part of a personal name, as for instance in Ibrahim Pasha or Emin Pasha.

Notable pashas:


Pasha is also the diminutive form of the Russian given name Pavel.


Pasha is also a Finnish Easter dessert. Pasha is made of a mixture of dairy products, often spiced with almonds and raisins. Recipe: [1] (http://www.upress.umn.edu/GreatScandinavianRecipes2.html#F)
