Salam! Looking for Pre-Colonial Books on Islamic Rulership

Assalamu alaikum everyone. Could someone help me out with a list of, say, ten books about Islamic governance and how to run a state? I'm specifically interested in works written before the colonial era kicked in, so before around the year 1800. Jazakum Allahu khairan in advance for any recommendations you can share!

Great topic. For starters, Al-Mawardi's 'Al-Ahkam al-Sultaniyya' is a foundational text. Ibn Khaldun's 'Muqaddimah' is also essential for understanding state dynamics.
