WWI & WWII Impact On The Middle East Part 2
Manage episode 451866801 series 3010104
This podcast continues our discussion on post WWI & WWII impact on the Middle East.
Understanding the historical backdrop of conflicts in the region is essential to comprehending the persistent struggle for land, identity, and sovereignty in Israel and Palestine. To begin to understand what is happening today, we once again have to go back in time to WWI.
The collapse of the Ottoman Empire triggered a major reshuffling of territorial claims in the Middle East. The Ottoman Empire ruled the region since the 1500s.
Once again, we’re talking about The Sykes-Picot Agreement of 1916, a secret pact between Britain and France, that divided Ottoman territories into spheres of influence, disregarding the region's complex ethnic and religious identities.
If you want to know why battles persist to this very day, take a listen to this podcast and learn some of the details!
There is always more to learn, talk to you soon.
