At the Paris Peace Conference in 1919, the only modern-day Arab state allowed representation was the Kingdom of Hejaz, which was led by Sharif Hussein bin Ali. The conference primarily focused on the aftermath of World War I and the restructuring of territories, with limited Arab input. Other Arab territories, such as those under Ottoman control, were not directly represented, as European powers dominated the discussions. The conference ultimately shaped the future of the Arab world in ways that often disregarded the aspirations of its people.
