Provincial governor in the Achaemenian empire. Darius I (r. 522-486 BC) established 20 satrapies with an annual tribute.

They collected taxes, were the highest judicial authority, and were responsible for internal security and for raising and maintaining an army.

Alexander the Great and his successors retained the satraps
