- (Osmanlı Dönemi) Hudutlardaki sancakbeyleri hakkında kullanılan bir tâbir idi. Orta çağlarda Türk Devletinin uçbeyleri yarı müstakil idiler. Bağlı bulundukları devletler zayıfladıkça istiklâl dereceleri artar, neticede müstakil devlet olarak ortaya çıkanlar olurdu. Akkoyunlular, Karakoyunlular ve nihayet Osmanlılar bu şekilde müstakil bir devlet olarak meydana gelmişlerdir. (O.T.D.S.)
