Which nations drew new political boundaries in southwest Asia following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire after World War I?
The correct answer is A. Great Britain and France.
This took place since October 30, 1918 to November 1, 1922, after Britain, France and Italy occupied Constantinople. With the approval of the League of Nations Mandate, Britain saw as probable to secure the part of the Ottoman Empire after WW1. They considered that it had a strategic position to the Colonial India. Britain struggled against Russia for interests in the same area. Syria and Lebanon became then part of France, though French found resistance, and for this reason, they divided the area into Lebanon and sub-states.
