DIWANIEH

This article appears in Volume V08, Page 346 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: DIO-DRO
DIWANIEH , a small town in Turkish
Asia
 , about 40 M. below
Hillah
 , on both banks of the Euphrates (310 58, 47" N., 440 58, 18" E.), which is here spanned by a floating
bridge
 . Formerly a military
post
  for the
control
  of the Affech territory, and a telegraph station, it was in 1893 made the
capital
  of the sanjak, instead of
Hillah
 , on
account
  of its more strategical position. This
transfer
  of the seat of government represented a step in the development of Turkish
control
  over the central regions of Irak.
