Description:

The Balfour Declaration was a public statement issued in 1917 by the British government during World War I announcing support for the establishment of a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine, then an Ottoman region with a minority Jewish population. It turned the Zionist aim of establishing a Jewish state in Palestine into a reality.
