Iraqi Revolt (Non-Accurate date YEAR ACCURATE ONLY) (International) (may 1, 1920 – oct 1, 1920)

Description:

In 1920, during the Iraqi Revolt, the British Empire held control over Iraq, which they considered a mandate under the League of Nations after World War I, while the French Empire controlled neighboring Syria and Lebanon, also under a mandate, creating tension as both powers sought to establish their influence in the region, leading to widespread resistance from local populations seeking independence; the Iraqi Revolt specifically targeted British rule in Mesopotamia (modern-day Iraq) as they aimed to resist British colonial administration and establish an independent Arab government.
