Kekaisaran Partia: Perbedaan antara revisi

Jika dibandingkan dengan Kekaisaran Wangsa Hakhamanis, maka pemerintahan Kekaisaran Partia tampak sebagai pemerintahan yang [[desentralisasi|terdesentralisasi]].<ref>{{harvnb|Garthwaite|2005|pp=67–68}}</ref> Salah satu sumber sejarah asli Partia menyingkap bahwa tata pemerintahan daerah-daerah yang diawasi pemerintah pusat di Kekaisaran Partia sangat mirip dengan tata pemerintahan daerah di Kekaisaran Wangsa Selefkos. Kedua-duanya menerapkan tiga jenjang hierarki daerah. Daerah tingkat [[marzbān]], xšatrap, dan dizpat di Kekaisaran Partia mirip dengan daerah tingkat [[kesatrapan|satrapia]], [[eparki]]a, dan hiparkia di Kekaisaran Wangsa Selefkos.<ref name="widengren_1983_1263">{{harvnb|Widengren|1983|p=1263}}</ref> Kekaisaran Partia juga mencakup sejumlah kerajaan bawahan yang bersifat semiotonom, antara lain [[Kerajaan Iberia]], [[Kerajaan Armenia]], Kerajaan [[Atropatene]], Kerajaan [[Gordiene]], Kerajaan [[Adiabene]], Kerajaan [[Edessa, Mesopotamia|Edesa]], Kerajaan [[Hatra]], Kerajaan [[Mesene]], Kerajaan [[Elimais]], dan Kerajaan [[Raja-raja Parsa|Parsa]].<ref name="lukonin_1983_701">{{harvnb|Lukonin|1983|p=701}}</ref><!-- The state rulers governed their own territories and minted their own coinage distinct from the royal coinage produced at the imperial mints.<ref>{{harvnb|Lukonin|1983|p=701}}; {{harvnb|Curtis|2007|pp=19–21}}</ref> This was not unlike the earlier AchaemenidKekaisaran EmpireWangsa Hakhamanis, which also had some city-states, and even daerah-daerah kesatrapan yang jauh who were semi-independent but "recognised the supremacy of the king, paid tribute and provided military support", according to Brosius.<ref>{{harvnb|Brosius|2006|pp=113–114}}</ref> However, the satraps of Parthian times governed smaller territories, and perhaps had less prestige and influence than their Achaemenid predecessors.<ref>{{harvnb|Brosius|2006|pp=115–116}}</ref> During the Seleucid period, the trend of local ruling dynasties with semi-autonomous rule, and sometimes outright rebellious rule, became commonplace, a fact reflected in the later Parthian style of governance.<ref>{{harvnb|Brosius|2006|pp=114–115}}</ref>
