Władysław Czajkowski

Muzaffer Pasha, born as Ladislas Czaykowski or Władysław Czajkowski (1837/40 – 1907, Beirut, Lebanon, Ottoman Empire), was Governor General (Mutessarıf) of Mount Lebanon between 1902–1907, a post reserved by international treaty for a Catholic of Ottoman nationality after the civil unrest and international intervention of 1860.

Czajkowski was educated in Belgium and France, graduating from the School of St Cyr in 1861.

After arrival in Istanbul, he was aide-de-camp to the Grand vizier Mehmed Fuad Pasha from 1863 to 1866; then to the Sultan Abdülaziz from 1867 to 1870, during which he accompanied the monarch on his European tour.

In 1870 he was appointed to the command of a section of cavalry in the military school, and held that office until the outbreak of the Russo-Turkish War (1877–1878), when he went to the front.
