districts
Explanation:
Counties are the largest units of local government, numbering about 8,000 nationwide. They provide many of the same services provided by cities.
Municipalities include cities, villages, and boroughs and they number about 19,000 in the United States. Often called city government, municipalities provide services such as police and fire protection, parks and recreation, streets and sewers, among others.
Most of the more than 15,000 school districts in the U.S. operate independently of city government.
The 33,000 special districts nationwide are organized to provide one or more services such as water and sanitation, mosquito control, transportation, parks and recreation, flood control, etc. Special districts have the authority to levy taxes and to spend public money.

Ottoman Empire.
Explanation:
The only Islamic empire that controlled territory in Europe in the early modern era was the Ottoman Empire. This empire started to develop and expand in the 15th century. The Ottomans managed to use the decline of the surrounding empires so they managed to conquer them with relative ease, thus creating a very large empire on excellent strategic location.
Part of the Ottoman Empire was located in Europe, or more specifically it controlled the Balkan Peninsula. The aspirations of the empire initially were to expand into Central Europe and possibly Western Europe, but the forces of these regions allied and didn't allowed the Ottomans to expand beyond the Balkans. The empire existed until the early 20th century, when it lost most of its territory and was reformed to create the modern day country of Turkey.
