History
Kurdish historian Sharafkhan Bidlisi writes that the Emirs of Bingöl came from the Barmakids family and that they have ruled Bingöl since the caliphate of the Abbasid caliph Harun al-Rashid.[5] In the 12th century, after the collapse of the Ayyubid Empire, the Emirate of Bingöl was established, then known under the name of Çapakçur.[6] The Bingöl principality, was a vassal to the Mongols, Aq Qoyunlu and Kara Koyunlu respectively, but it preserved its existence in this turbulent period. [7]. After defeating the Azerbaijani dominated Tabriz; it organized expeditions to Eastern and Southeastern Anatolia on 1508. The expeditions were directed towards Mosul, Mardin and Diyarbekir. Later the Safavids succeeded in capturing Capakçur, although they also aimed to take over the administrative center of Hançuk. This was prevented by troops of the Bingöl Emir Abdal Bey.[8] The Emir died shortly after the war and his successor was not able to protect Hançuk, and after the Battle of Caldiran in 1514, the Emirs of Bingöl were subject to the Ottoman Empire[9][10] After Abdal Bey's death, the emirate lands were divided into districts as Hançuk, Genç, Meneşkurd and Bingöl During the beginning of the 17th century, the Emirate of Bingöl, which had been under the control of the Emirate of Palu, was terminated by the Ottomans in 1864, However, the Kurdish Suveydi dynasty, which ruled Bingöl for 13 centuries, came to an end.
