dispositions


Explanation:
"...وهمين كه موارد تمهيدي را يكى پس از ديگرى تحقق بخشيدند..."
"...and having made their dispositions one after the other..."

Given the old formal register of this text, you could use "dispositions" which conveys the idea that a state of readiness has been entered into, which looks like what you need here.
