What to Focus On

  • The Middle East included both Arab and non-Arab states.
  • Turkey and Iran are the two Middle East states specifically not peopled by Arabs.
  • Oil and geography made the region strategically important.

  • The Arab League was founded in 1945.
  • Its membership reached 20 states by 1980.
  • The United Arab Republic lasted from 1958 to 1961.

  • Zionism aimed at a Jewish homeland in Palestine.
  • Britain’s 1917 support for a Jewish national home worsened Arab fear.
  • The Peel Commission and the 1939 British proposal both failed.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Israel was created by Britain after the Second World War.

The Middle East is mostly an Arab region, so Iran and Turkey should be treated as Arab states too.
