In the Late Middle Ages, a landdrost, drost, or drossaard (bailiff) was an official who represented the sovereign lord in a specific area. Their duties included maintaining public order, legislation, the administration of justice, and the defence of the assigned territory. During the French period<\/a>, the term landdrost was introduced for a Dutch administrative official who governed a specific region. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
