Caravanserais

Each caravanserai on the Great Caravan Road has a solid stone wall, a large open courtyard, and covered areas where people and animals can crowd together in case of a sandstorm. Every caravanserai has a reliable source of water (whether an oasis, a deep well, or some magical source), and they work hard to keep supplies of food on hand for animals as well as people. The sole purpose of some caravans is to resupply the Caravanserais.
Being separated from each other by a day’s journey, and being separated from their titular lords by an even farther distance, the local rulers possess great leeway in the exercise of their authority. A caravanserai whose governor is also a pasha (military commander) has a unit of the caliphate’s Grand Army stationed there to provide security against threats too large for the guards of a caravan or caravanserai to handle. These mounted units patrol up and down the caravan route.
