Israel History Israel and Palestine History and Conflict The End Times and the Future of Israel W

The ottoman empire quickly collapsed after world war i, and its extensive lands were divvied up between the french and british. While the french gained control of the levant, which would later become modern day nations like syria, the british were given the mandate for palestine from the newly created league of nations. The british mandate for palestine gave the british control over the lands that have since become jordan, israel, the west bank, and the gaza strip. The terms of the british mandate incorporated the language of the balfour declaration, recognizing the "historical connection of the jewish people with palestine." The british were also tasked with creating a jewish state, which the united states congress endorsed in 1922.
