Mandate System During World War I, Great Britain and France agreed to divide large portions of the Ottoman Empire in the Middle East between themselves. After the war, the “mandate system” gave Great Britain and France control over the lands that became: Iraq, Transjordan, and Palestine (British controlled) Syria and Lebanon (French controlled). The division of the Ottoman Empire through the mandate system planted the seeds for future conflicts in the Middle East
