The Kanije Eyalet was an administrative territorial entity of the Ottoman Empire formed in 1600 and existing until the collapse of Ottoman rule in Central Europe after 1686.

History

The province of Kanije was established in 1600 after the town of Kanije was captured from Habsburgs. This newly conquered area was joined with territory of Zigetvar Province, which was formed in 1596 from some sanjaks of Budin Province and Bosnia Province. The Kanije Eyalet existed until the capture of Kanije by Habsburg Monarchy in 1690. It was formally ceded to Habsburg Monarchy by the Treaty of Karlowitz in 1699.
