Palestine Currency Board banknote for 1 Palestinian Pound,1939.

Palestine is a name given to the geographic region between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River. The region is also known as the Land of Israel, the Holy Land and the Southern Levant. In 1832 Palestine was conquered by Muhammad Ali's Egypt, but in 1840 Britain intervened and returned control of the Levant to the Ottomans in return for further capitulations. The end of the 19th century saw the beginning of Zionist immigration and the Revival of the Hebrew language. The movement was publicly supported by Great Britain during World War I with the Balfour Declaration of 1917. The British captured Jerusalem a month later, and were formally awarded a mandate in 1922. In 1947, following World War II and the Holocaust, the British Government announced their desire to terminate the Mandate, and the United Nations General Assembly voted to partition the territory into a Jewish state and an Arab state. The Jewish leadership accepted the proposal but the Arab Higher Committee rejected it; a civil war began immediately, and the State of Israel was declared in 1948. The 1948 Palestinian exodus, known in Arabic as the Nakba ('The Catastrophe') occurred when approximately 711,000 to 725,000 Palestinian Arabs fled or were expelled from their homes, during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War during which Israel captured and incorporated a further 26% of Palestinian territory. In the course of the Six Day War in June 1967, Israel captured the remainder of historic Palestine and began a continuing policy of Israeli settlement and annexation.

Descripción:
Traducción automática: Palestina es el nombre que se le da a la región geográfica entre el mar Mediterráneo y el río Jordán. La región también es conocida como la Tierra de Israel, Tierra Santa y Levante Sur. En 1832 Palestina fue conquistada por el Egipto de Muhammad Ali, pero en 1840 Gran Bretaña intervino y devolvió el control del Levante a los otomanos a cambio de nuevas capitulaciones. El final del siglo XIX vio el comienzo de la inmigración sionista y el renacimiento de la lengua hebrea. El movimiento fue apoyado públicamente por Gran Bretaña durante la Primera Guerra Mundial con la Declaración Balfour de 1917. Los británicos capturaron Jerusalén un mes después y obtuvieron formalmente un mandato en 1922. En 1947, después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y el Holocausto, el gobierno británico anunciaron su deseo de poner fin al Mandato y la Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas votó a favor de dividir el territorio en un estado judío y un estado árabe. Los dirigentes judíos aceptaron la propuesta pero el Alto Comité Árabe la rechazó; Inmediatamente comenzó una guerra civil y en 1948 se declaró el Estado de Israel. El éxodo palestino de 1948, conocido en árabe como la Nakba ('La Catástrofe'), se produjo cuando aproximadamente entre 711.000 y 725.000 árabes palestinos huyeron o fueron expulsados de sus hogares, durante la guerra árabe-israelí de 1948 durante la cual Israel capturó e incorporó otro 26% del territorio palestino. En el curso de la Guerra de los Seis Días en junio de 1967, Israel capturó el resto de la Palestina histórica y comenzó una política continua de asentamientos y anexiones israelíes.
