The Mandate System

• After World War I ended in 1918, certain
  territories were taken from the defeated nations
  and placed under the control of one or more of
  the victorious nations. These areas were called
  mandated territories. The League of Nations, a
  forerunner of the United Nations (UN), supervised
  the governing countries control of the mandated
  territories. The League expected the governing
  countries to improve living conditions in the
  mandated territories, and to prepare the people
  for self-government.
• The United Kingdom received mandates for
  Mesopotamia (later renamed Iraq) and Palestine.
  Palestine was later divided into Palestine and
  Transjordan (later renamed Jordan). France
  received Syria, which was later divided into
  Syria and Lebanon. The mandate system ended in
  1947. By that time, several mandated territories,
  including Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Jordan, had
  become independent countries.
