Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Mandate of Palestine was a League of Nations mandate that gave Britain control of Palestine in 1920. It placed the British in the center of Middle Eastern affairs as they were responsible for governing and overseeing the development of Palestine until 1948. The Treaty of Versailles, which ended World War I, established the mandate system and gave various European powers control over former Ottoman territories. However, there was no Treaty or Mandate of the Middle East or Palestine specifically.
