Great Britain held several mandates under the League of Nations following World War I. Notably, it administered the mandates for territories such as Palestine, Iraq, and Transjordan, which were previously part of the Ottoman Empire. These mandates were intended to prepare the regions for self-governance, though they often faced significant challenges and resistance from local populations. The British mandates played a crucial role in shaping the political landscape of the Middle East.
