We are talking about the years of the Arab Revolt that started on June 5, 1916. The Emirs Feisal and Ali attacked the Ottoman troops in Medina. They wanted to control the railways and the sacred city of Medina. By 1918, both armies agreed to stop the fighting, and the Arabs initiated negotiations with Great Britain and France about the Muslim territories. The agreement was signed on October 31, 1918. In that time Great Britain controlled Iraq, Syria, and Palestina.
