San Remo conference

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The San Remo Conference was a meeting held by the Supreme Court of the League of Nations in April 1920. The Supreme Court of the League of Nations assigned the Mandates of Mesopotamia. This included the areas known today as Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine. The San Remo Conference is important because it was the base on which Britain and France divided the regions between them.[1]
