Mughal administration
The Mughal administrative system introduced major changes under Akbar, including a centralized despotic structure based on the military mansabdari system. Administration was hierarchical from the center to provinces to local areas. Key officials included subedars for provinces, faujdars for districts, and kotwals responsible for law and order. The system emphasized revenue collection and maintaining records while incorporating some local self-governance through panchayats. Overall it established an elaborate and uniform administration across the empire but lacked elements of democracy, self-criticism, and endogenous reform.

Aurangzeb imposed strict religious views and persecuted religious minorities like Hindus and Sikhs, taxing and restricting them.

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
