History
editFrom 1867 until 1922, Mahmudiye was part of Hüdavendigâr vilayet. The origins of Mahmudiye date back to 3000 BC. The archaeological remains in the district confirm this history. In the early 1800s, Abdullah, the prominent figure in the region, is known to have founded Mahmudiye. During the Ottoman period, this area became the first modern stud farm of the Ottoman Empire, called Çiftlikat-ı Hümayun.[5]
