Lebanese Federation, Beirut.
The Lebanese Federation is a new country that became independent in 1933.
This country is composed of four regions: Damascus, Alawi, Druze Mountains and Greater Lebanon, which were formerly mandated by France.
Originally, these areas were under the jurisdiction of Ottoman "Greater Syria", which also included Jerusalem and Jordan.
After Osman knelt down, the land was divided among several big gangsters.
Including Aleppo, Deir ez-Zor, Raqqa, Hasakah, Idlib, Latakia, northern Hama, Homs and eastern Damascus and other eastern and northern areas of "Greater Syria", as well as the entire Jordan has officially become the territory of the Arab Socialist Republic, and Arabia has had access to the Mediterranean Sea.
The Jerusalem area became a British mandate, and then the British implemented the "Jewish Home Plan" and established "Israel" here.
The remaining part became a French mandate.
Originally, according to the promise of several major gangsters from the Allied Powers, this area would gain independence after the end of World War I.
China was the first to do it.
Jordan and eastern and northern Syria became part of the Arab Republic, which is the Arabs’ own country.
Then Britain also did it.
Of course, they gave the territory to the Jews, but they still kept their promise.
But after France took over, it regarded this place as a colony and had no intention of making it independent at all.
In order to divide the anti-French forces, the French colonial authorities divided it into several independent areas such as Damascus, Alawi, Druze Mountains and Greater Lebanon.
The French High Commissioner dominated everything, and local power was completely in the hands of the High Commissioner's representatives and pro-French elements.
In order to consolidate their rule, the French colonial authorities provoked local religious and ethnic disputes, banned local political parties, and severely suppressed all opponents.
At the same time, they forced locals to learn French, and in some areas it was forbidden to learn Arabic.
French capital controls the lifeblood of the local national economy and extracts large amounts of profits, leading to a decline in production and a decline in people's livelihood.
Moreover, France on this plane suffered greater losses in World War I, and its oppression of various colonies was even more severe.
The living standards of the local people have plummeted, even worse than during the Ottoman rule.
The locals who were fucked hard by the big cock naturally stopped doing it.
Nima, you promised independence and freedom.
Don't think that just because you are a big hooligan, you can keep your word without keeping it.
As a result, the local people launched a heroic struggle with the French colonists, and armed uprisings continued in various places.
Especially between 1926 and 1929, the Syrian uprising led by Atrash and Shahbandar was far larger than the original time and space, and dealt an extremely heavy blow to the French rulers.
In this matter, the troubles faced by the French far exceed the original time and space, and there is also a lot of trouble in Africa.
Coupled with the ensuing economic crisis, Gallic Chicken really couldn't bear it anymore.
This piece of land, which was the last to be acquired, naturally became the easiest area to compromise.
In 1930, in order to ease the anti-French struggle of the Syrian people, the French rulers established two autonomous states of Lebanon and Syria on this territory, allowing them to establish their own autonomous governments, implement the constitution and other measures.
The French, who were so distressed by the colonial liberation movement, no longer dared to do anything like they did in the original time and space.
And in order to use this place as a nail buried in the Middle East, the French had to make a lot of concessions to the local area and vomited a lot of power.
Finally, on June 17, 1933, the two regions of Lebanon and Syria announced the merger, established the Federal Republic of Lebanon, formulated a constitution, held parliamentary elections, and established its own government.
In December 1933, all British and French troops were forced to withdraw from Syria, and the country officially became independent.
The Federal Republic of Lebanon is much larger than Lebanon in the original time and space, with a total area of 59,000 square kilometers and a population of approximately 2.2 million.
The biggest difference is that the religious component here has changed a lot.
Because of the French bias and bloody suppression, many Green Sects there were killed, and many of them fled to Arabia.
Therefore, Lebanon is currently an Arab country with a majority of the Christian population.
Believers of Maronites, Greek Orthodox, Roman Catholics, Armenian Orthodox and other fundamentalist factions account for about 80% of the total population.
It has become a very unique Arab country.
Well, this is also a change planned by Britain and France.
They are happy to see Lebanon become a Christian country, so that it can serve as a nail.
And China's attitude towards this is all-important.
Anyway, it would be better to have an Israel or another Lebanon.

This will create a more catfish effect and make those little brothers in the Middle East feel more at ease.
With the conscious or unconscious support of big gangsters such as Britain and France, Lebanon in this plane is very powerful, even stronger than Lebanon and Syria in the original time and space combined.
It has five standing army brigades and an air force that is not weak among small countries. .
However, after the outbreak of World War II, Lebanon did not join the Allies and declared neutrality.
The capital of Lebanon is Damascus, but the largest city is Beirut.
This city is located on a narrow plain on the Mediterranean Sea, backed by the rolling Mount Lebanon.
It is not only the largest excellent seaport city on the east coast of the Mediterranean, but also an important gateway and cargo distribution center for the Republic of Lebanon.
It is also the commercial, transportation, financial and cultural center of the Middle East.
It is also the connecting point between East and West and the gateway to and from the Middle East.
Beirut attracts tourists from all over the world with its exquisite architectural art, gorgeous natural scenery and famous historical monuments.
Moreover, this is also the largest port in Lebanon.
The phosphate, oil and natural gas here are the country's main export commodities.
Relying on the spring breeze of World War II, they have made a lot of money in recent years.
Every day, more than a dozen cargo ships, oil ships and natural gas ships from Germany and Italy import supplies here.
Of course Britain and France would not do it, but now that most of the Mediterranean is controlled by the Allies, they could only stare blankly if they wanted to object.
As for protesting to Lebanon, it is even more ineffective.
The Lebanese people remember how they were cheated back then.
But even so, France is still very influential here.
Many companies here are French.
Although they were forced to take shares by the Lebanese government after independence, Lebanon lacks industrial experience, so many of these companies still employ French people. to manage.
The French Pioneer Technology Group, also known as the "Pioneer Consortium", has the greatest influence here.
After many French companies withdrew from Lebanon, fearing that they would lose all their money, the Pioneer Consortium did not retreat but advanced, acquiring many French industries that had withdrawn.
And successfully cooperated with the Lebanese government to form a joint venture called "Lebanon National-Pioneer Industrial Company".
Lebanon's largest trust group is headquartered in Beirut.
The tallest building in Beirut is the headquarters building of "Lebanon Pioneer".
At this time, a secret meeting was being held in a secret conference room on the top floor of the headquarters building A middle-aged European with a half-bald head said excitedly: "Now the facts have proved that the system of the Third Republic is no longer suitable for France.
