French Mandate of Syria
The French Mandate of Syria was a
League of Nations Mandate
created after the
First World War
when the
Ottoman Empire
was split by the
Treaty of Sèvres
. Four mandate territories were created, with the rest of the territory placed under monarchies. The British controlled the Mandates of
Palestine
and
Iraq
, while the French controlled the Mandates of
Lebanon
and Syria. France and
Syria
signed a
Franco-Syrian Treaty of Independence
in
1936
, but the Mandate continued because France failed to ratify the document.
Syria
was granted its independence in
1943
, after
Free French
and
British
forces regained it from
Vichy France
in
1941
during the
Syria-Lebanon campaign
. The French forces finally left the country on April 17, 1946: this day is celebrated by Syrians as "Independence Day" (Arabic: عيد الاستقلال), it is also referred to as "Evacuation Day" (Arabic: عيد الجلاء).
