The Bosnian uprising (also known as Great Bosnian Uprising) was a revolt of Bosnian landlords against the Ottoman Empire. The casus belli were reforms implemented by the Sultan to abolish the ayan system.Despite winning several notable victories, the rebels were eventually defeated in a battle near Sarajevo in 1832. Internal discord contributed to the failure of the rebellion, because Gradaščević was not supported by much of the Herzegovinian nobility.

As a result, Ali Pasha Rizvanbegović was named pasha of the Herzegovina Eyalet which was seceded in 1833. The Sultan implemented the new the pasha's representative system, abolishing the old landlord system. The new the pasha's representatives were mostly old landlords, but in 1850 Omer Pasha completely eliminated old landlords families.
