Send us a textJoin Professor Jeffrey Sachs and historian Eugene Rogan, professor of Modern Middle Eastern History at Oxford, as they delve into the complex history of the Arab world, from the Ottoman conquest in 1516 to today's geopolitical crises of the modern Middle East. Through the lens of his acclaimed book The Arabs: A History, Rogan brilliantly examines the long history of foreign domination, the rise of Arab nationalism, the roles of Europe and the US as outside powers, and the unresolved conflicts shaping the Middle East until today. Together, they offer us a masterclass in history that sheds light on the urgent questions of war, power, and the possibility of peace in the region. From Ottoman rule to European colonialism, the impact of the Balfour Declaration, and the ongoing Israeli Palestinian conflict, the conversation provides crucial historical context for today's challenges.The Book Club with Jeffrey Sachs is brought to you by the SDG Academy, the flagship education initiative of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network.

Diverse Voices Book Review host Hopeton Hay interviewed Eugene Rogan, a professor of modern Middle Eastern history at the University of Oxford and the director of the Middle East Center at St. Anthony's College, Oxford. Rogan discusses his book, The Damascus Events: The 1860 Massacre and the Making of the Modern Middle East." The conversation touches on the historical context of the Ottoman Empire in the 19th century, highlighting its decline and the reforms it undertook to modernize and compete with European powers. These reforms, however, led to social unrest and violence, including the 1860 massacre in Damascus. Rogan explains that the Ottoman Empire was generally tolerant of different faiths, but the massacre was an exception caused in part by the volatile changes and the imposition of reforms without the consent of the people.

The Gaza war has triggered widespread geopolitical repercussions, placing Lebanon at a critical juncture. Regional instability has intensified, exacerbating tensions between Hezbollah and Israel despite a recently brokered ceasefire. Israel's continued military presence in southern Lebanon raises urgent questions about sovereignty, security, and the viability of peace agreements in this volatile region. Lebanon faces mounting challenges, including economic collapse, public unrest, and increased militarization along its southern border. Hezbollah's response to the Gaza conflict, intertwined with its ties to Iran, complicates Lebanon's internal dynamics and its role within Middle Eastern geopolitics. Meanwhile, the international community grapples with balancing Lebanon's fragile stability against the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, often prioritizing strategic interests over humanitarian needs. This episode examines the historical, political, and humanitarian dimensions of these issues. What is Lebanon's path forward amidst regional and domestic pressures? How does Hezbollah influence this complex landscape, and what role can international actors play in fostering peace? Joining us to unravel these questions are this week's special guests. Jon Allen is a distinguished Canadian diplomat with over four decades of experience in international affairs. A graduate of the University of Western Ontario (LL.B.) and the London School of Economics (LL.M. in International Law), Mr. Allen has held key postings worldwide, including Mexico City, New Delhi, and Washington, D.C., where he served as Minister of Political Affairs. From 2006 to 2010, he was Canada's Ambassador to Israel, gaining deep insight into the region's geopolitics. Currently, Mr. Allen is a Senior Fellow at the Munk School of Global Affairs, a Distinguished Fellow of the Canadian International Council, and Chair of Rozana Canada, promoting Israeli-Palestinian healthcare collaboration. He previously appeared on Beyond the Headlines in the 2023/24 season to discuss insurgency dynamics in the Middle East. Eugene Rogan is a renowned historian specializing in the modern Middle East and North Africa. He serves as Professor of Modern Middle Eastern History at the University of Oxford and is a Fellow at St. Antony's College. A Columbia University economics graduate, Dr. Rogan earned his master's and doctorate in Middle Eastern Studies from Harvard University. Professor Rogan's acclaimed works include The Arabs: A History, The Fall of the Ottomans: The Great War in the Middle East, and the forthcoming The Damascus Events: The 1860 Massacre and the Destruction of the Old Ottoman World. His expertise spans the Arab-Israeli conflict, Ottoman history, and the First World War's impact on the region, offering valuable historical context to contemporary events. We are honored to have him join us today. Production Note The segment featuring Jon Allen was recorded on November 11, 2024, before key developments in the Israel-Lebanon conflict. A ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel was reached in late November 2024; however, Israeli forces remain in southern Lebanon, raising ongoing concerns. These updates are addressed in the second segment with Professor Eugene Rogan, recorded on January 11, 2025, to reflect the latest developments. Produced by: Julia Brahy
“20. Yüzyıl” geçmemiştir bile, bütün ağırlığıyla “21. Yüzyıl”ın içindedir. 2025'e girerken 20. Yüzyılın iki dünya savaşının sonuçlarıyla boğuşuyoruz hâlâ. Ukrayna-Rusya Savaşı, Filistin'de “soykırım”, Lübnan'da “devlet krizi”, Asya-Pasifik'te “Tayvan”. Liste uzayıp gidiyor. Hepsinin kökü 20 Yüzyıl'da. Her iki dünya savaşı da Kapitalist Batı uygarlığının krizlerinin sonucuydu. “Osmanlı İmparatorluğu”nun tasfiyesini ve modern Ortadoğu'nun sözde inşasını anlatan David Fromkin'nin kitabına “Tüm Barışlara Son Veren Barış” başlığını koyması gayet yerindeydi. “Osmanlı'nın Çöküşü: Ortadoğu'da Büyük Savaş 1914-1920” başlıklı kitabın yazarı Eugene Rogan ise kendisiyle yapılan bir röportajda “Avrupa'daki bir çatışmayı dünya savaşına dönüştürenin gerçekten de Orta Doğu olduğunu iddia ediyorum” diyordu.
In 1860, the diverse Ottoman city of Damascus witnessed the massacre of thousands of Christians. The killings, combined with Constantinople's hardline response, shattered the city's tolerant society and it took 25 years for Damascus to recover its stability and prosperity. In this episode, historian Eugene Rogan speaks to Danny Bird to explain why these shocking events proved to be a watershed in the modern history of the Middle East. Please note this episode was recorded prior to the recent overthrowing of the regime of Bashar al-Assad.

The 1860 ‘Damascus Events' saw Syrian Christians murdered by their Sunni Muslim neighbours in a brutal genocidal moment that reshaped the late Ottoman Empire. It's an example of how previously harmonious communities can descend into brutal violence in a very short time span. But in the Ottoman Empire's response to the violence, it's also an example of how hostile communities can be brought back from the brink.

The Damascus Events: The 1860 Massacre and the Destruction of the Old Ottoman World (Basic Book, 2024) recreates one of the watershed moments in the history of the Middle East: the ferocious outbreaks of disorder across the Levant in 1860 which resulted in the massacre of thousands of Christians in Damascus. Eugene Rogan brilliantly recreates the lost world of the Middle East under Ottoman rule. The once mighty empire was under pressure from global economic change and European imperial expansion. Reforms in the mid-nineteenth century raised tensions across the empire, nowhere more so than in Damascus. A multifarious city linked by caravan trade to Baghdad, the Mediterranean and Mecca, the chaos of languages, customs and beliefs made Damascus a warily tolerant place. Until the reforms began to advantage the minority Christian community at the expense of the Muslim majority. But in 1860 people who had generally lived side by side for generations became bitter enemies as news of civil war in Mount Lebanon arrived in the city. Under the threat of a French expeditionary force, the Ottomans dealt with the disaster effectively and ruthlessly - but the old, generally quite tolerant Damascene world lay in ruins. It would take a quarter of a century to restore stability and prosperity to the Syrian capital. This is both an essential book for understanding the emergence of the modern Middle East from the destruction of the old Ottoman world, and a uniquely gripping story. Eugene Rogan is author of the bestselling The Fall of the Ottomans: The Great War in the Middle East, 1914-1920. He is professor of modern Middle Eastern history at the University of Oxford and Director of the Middle East Centre, St Antony's College, Oxford. Learn more about your ad choices.

Historically Thinking: Conversations about historical knowledge and how we achieve it
At 2 PM on July 9, 1860, a mob attacked the Christian quarter of Damascus. For over a week, shops, churches, houses, and monasteries were attacked, looted, and burned. Men were killed, women raped and abducted, children taken from their families. Some 5000 Christians were ultimately killed, about half of them refugees who had fled to the city from Mount Lebanon during an earlier outbreak of violence there, the others all native Damascenes—about 15% of the Christian population of Damascus. These eight days of terror became known as “the Damascus events.” In his new book my guest Eugene Rogan describes the external and internal pressures which led to the Damascus events; the immediate precipitation of the events; the eight days of violence; how the violence was ended; and finally how the Christian population was reintegrated into the Damascus community. Eugene Rogan is professor of Modern Middle Eastern History at the University of Oxford, where he is also the Director of the Middle East Center at Saint Anthony College, Oxford. Author of numerous books, his most recent is The Damascus Events: The 1860 Massacre and the Making of the Modern Middle East. For Further Investigation We haven't had that many podcasts on the Ottoman Empire: in fact, hitherto we have had precisely one, a conversation with Kaya Şahín in Episode 314 about Suleyman, one of the greatest Ottoman monarchs. We haven't had that many podcasts on the modern Middle East, either. The closest would be one of the most popular podcasts we've done, this conversation with the late Neil Faulkner in Episode 240, which dealt with the British Empire's attempts to cope with revolutionary Islamic movements in late nineteenth century Africa and Arabia.
En 1914 el Imperio Otomano se encontraba en la fase final de su prolongada decadencia, pero seguía siendo una potencia digna de tener en cuenta en tanto que ocupaba una gran extensión geográfica de 2,5 millones de kilómetros cuadrados y tenía unos 25 millones de habitantes. En la segunda mitad del siglo XIX y los primeros años del siglo XX había perdido prácticamente todos sus territorios europeos, pero aún controlaba los estrechos del Bósforo y los Dardanelos y se extendía por todo Oriente Próximo y parte de Oriente Medio. Los actuales Turquía, Siria, Líbano, Israel, Jordania, Irak y parte de Arabia Saudita y Yemen integraban el imperio. Era económicamente débil y padecía una gran agitación política tras la revolución de los jóvenes turcos de 1908. Las potencias occidentales no esperaban gran cosa de los otomanos más allá de perseverar en su lento pero imparable ocaso, aun así, era un aliado interesante en tanto que controlaba el acceso al mar Negro y la encrucijada del levante mediterráneo. Con el estallido de la guerra en agosto de aquel año el Gobierno otomano se mantuvo al principio a la expectativa, pero pronto tomó partido. Escogió el bando de las potencias centrales acaudillado por la Alemania imperial. A finales de octubre atacó junto a los alemanes el puerto de Odesa, en la costa ucraniana del mar Negro ocasionando que el imperio británico y Francia le declarasen la guerra. Los otomanos poco podían decidir en el frente occidental, pero sí que podían hacer daño al comercio británico en el Mediterráneo oriental y presionar a Rusia desde el sur. Unos meses más tarde los británicos concibieron un plan para sacarles de la guerra desembarcando tropas en los Dardanelos para que ocupasen Constantinopla. Ese plan salió mal, pero no otros que se habían trazado en Londres para neutralizar al imperio otomano. En 1916 estalló la revuelta árabe instigada por los británicos que llegaron a un acuerdo secreto con los franceses para repartirse los restos del imperio. En ese acuerdo, conocido como tratado Sykes-Picot, se preveía el reparto de los restos del imperio en medio oriente dejando para el tratado posterior al final de la guerra el destino de Anatolia. Ese tratado se negoció en Sèvres y fue ratificado por los delegados del sultán en agosto de 1920. Sèvres no marcaba el fin del imperio otomano, pero si su renuncia a todo territorio que no estuviese poblado por comunidades de etnia turca. Todo lo demás quedaría bajo administración de las potencias vencedoras o se conformarían nuevos Estados. Siria y el Líbano pasarían a control francés, Mesopotamia, Jordania y Palestina al del Reino Unido. En la península arábiga surgieron dos reinos que darían lugar años más tarde a Arabia Saudita. La actual Turquía quedaba dividida entre Francia, el Reino Unido, Grecia e Italia con un imperio otomano muy reducido en el centro de la península de Anatolia. Pero el tratado nunca llegó a entrar en vigor. Los nacionalistas turcos capitaneados por Mustafá Kemal se rebelaron contra sus disposiciones y declararon la guerra a los aliados y al Gobierno del sultán. Esa guerra duró más de cuatro años y dio lugar a la República de Turquía que consiguió establecerse sobre la península. En 1923 se firmó la paz en Lausana y quedó abolido el sultanato, ultimo resto de un imperio que había durado más de 600 años y que en su momento álgido a mediados del siglo XVII se extendía por tres continentes desde el Danubio a las costas del océano Índico.

At the beginning of the 20th century, most of the territory that we call the Middle East- including Syria, Iraq, Israel and Turkey- were part of the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman alliance w/ Germany and Austria-Hungary during World War I provided Britain and France w/ the opportunity to divide the once-great empire into many states based on European imperial ambitions. In this episode Bob and Ben speak w/ Eugene Rogan to learn more about why the Ottoman Empire was divided, how that process shaped the Middle East, and how this history helps us understand the world today. Dr. Eugene Rogan is a Professor of Modern Middle Eastern History at St Antony's College, University of Oxford. He is author of The Arabs: A History (Penguin, 2009, 3rd edition 2018), which has been translated in 18 languages and was named one of the best books of 2009 by The Economist, The Financial Times, and The Atlantic Monthly. His new book, The Fall of the Ottomans: The Great War in the Middle East, 1914-1920, was published in February 2015. This is a rebroadcast of episode 112 which originally aired on November 19th, 2018. This rebroadcast was edited by Ben Sawyer.
The First World War put an end to 600 years of Ottoman rule. Buoyed by promises of self-determination on the part of the victorious powers, the region's peoples prepared for a future free of imperial rule. They were to be bitterly disappointed. European rhetoric about self-rule had never been sincerely intended to apply to non-Europeans — which was made brutally clear by Britain and France as they divided the post-Ottoman Middle East between themselves in the infamous Sykes-Picot agreement. “It was a secret deal to carve up the Levantine part of the Ottoman Empire between France and Britain,” explains historian James Barr, author of “A Line in the Sand and Lords of the Desert.” “There was a diagonal line drawn, in Sykes' infamous words, from the ‘E' in Acre to the last ‘K' in Kirkuk.” In this follow-up to our episode with Eugene Rogan on the Ottoman collapse, Barr joins New Lines' Faisal Al Yafai to talk about how European colonial powers attempted to take their place, why the region seems to be so attractive to foreign imperial powers and why their efforts to control it are almost always doomed.

For six centuries, the Ottoman Sultans held dominion across most of the Middle East, North Africa and Southern Europe. But by the eve of the First World War in 1914, the empire was already in steep decline. It is at this moment of crisis that the preeminent historian Eugene Rogan begins his bestselling book “The Fall of the Ottomans.” In this podcast, he talks to New Lines' Faisal Al Yafai about those decisive final years. They discuss the Ottoman experience of the Great War, whether the empire's ultimate collapse was inevitable and how the Middle East of today emerged from the ashes of its defeat.

Beim Ersten Weltkrieg denken wir oft an Grabenkämpfe in Europa – gekämpft wurde aber auch im Nahen Osten. Durch „Der Untergang des Osmanischen Reiches“ versteht man besser, wie der Krieg dort die Voraussetzungen für heutige Konflikte schuf.

Piotr Schulkes and Eugene Rogan discuss the importance of history in contemporary Middle Eastern politics, how the West discusses the region, and a number of stories from Rogan's time at Oxford.
By 1914 the great powers of Europe were sliding inexorably toward war, and they pulled the Middle East along with them into one of the most destructive conflicts in human history. No region experienced more change as a result of the war than the Middle East. The Ottoman empire ceased to exist after dominating the region for more than four centuries and borders were redrawn piecemeal by the victorious allies. This set the stage for the modern Middle East and all of the conflict that will follow, much of which continues to this day. To help explain we interview Dr. Eugen Rogan who is a Professor of Modern Middle Eastern History at Oxford and a Fellow of St Antony's College. He is the author of several books on the Middle East including The Fall of the Ottomans: The Great War in the Middle East, which was An International Bestseller and Economist Best Book of the Year. His other work includes The Arabs: A History and Outside In: On the Margins of the Modern Middle East
Su nombre de nacimiento era Alí Riza oglu Mustafá es decir Mustafá hijo de Alí, pero todos le conocemos como Mustafá Kemal Atatürk, qué significa literalmente “padre de los turcos”. Nació a finales del siglo XIX, en 1881 concretamente, en la ciudad de Salónica (en la actual Grecia) cuando aún una porción considerable de los Balcanes formaba parte del Imperio Otomano. Fue admitido en la academia militar con 15 años y se convertiría con el correr del tiempo en uno de los héroes otomanos de la Primera Guerra Mundial por su papel en la batalla de Galípoli. Llegada a la paz, que trajo consigo la derrota y desmembración del Imperio Otomano, se convirtió en el hombre fuerte de un país en ruinas que hubo de reconstruir sobre nuevos cimientos. A él se debe la fundación de la República de Turquía tal y como la conocemos. Puso en marcha un ambicioso programa de reformas políticas, económicas, sociales y culturales que conforman el llamado kemalismom la doctrina política que ha marcado la historia de Turquía del último siglo. Sin las reformas de Atatürk Turquía, un país a caballo entre dos continentes y dos mundos, sería muy distinto a lo que es hoy. Abolió el sultanato y el califato, implantó una República constitucional de carácter secular, adoptó el calendario gregoriano y el alfabeto latino y sustituyó la ley islámica por códigos legales de inspiración occidental. Su obra reformadora fue la más ambiciosa que se ha abordado jamás en un país de mayoría musulmana. En la Turquía contemporánea es un personaje central, el más importante de todo el siglo XX. Cuenta con un gran mausoleo en Ankara y su efigie es ampliamente reproducida a lo largo y ancho de todo el país. Los turcos son un pueblo antiguo con muchos siglos de historia a sus espaldas, pero Turquía, en cambio, es una República moderna cuya invención corresponde a un solo hombre: Mustafá Kemal Atatürk.

Jeffrey Sconce breaks down the genre of 'bad film,' movies "so bad that the are actually good." Harlan Lebo, author of "Citizen Kane: A Filmmaker's Journey," reveals that the filming of Citizen Kane was just as engaging as the film itself. Eugene Rogan of the University of Oxford reveals the story behind the legendary Lawrence of Arabia.
This talk will look at how Arabs established a democratic government at Damascus in 1919-20 by forging a compromise between secular liberals, conservative Muslims, and leaders of non-Muslim communities as described in How the West Stole Democracy from the Arabs. However, the Paris Peace Conference refused to recognize Arab democracy because it threatened British and French colonial rule in other Muslim countries. By authorizing the French army to occupy Damascus, the Conference destroyed not only the Syrian government, but also future prospects for Arab democracy. The book challenges previous understandings of the impact of World War I on the Middle East that focus on nationalism as the primary outcome. Not only did Arabs seek to revive liberal constitutionalism, but they also demonstrated a political sophistication that has been erased by colonizers. The events of 1920 tainted the new regime of international law under the League of Nations with racism and sparked the rise of anti-liberal Islamism. To view the accompanying presentation to this talk, please visit: https://cbrl.ac.uk/event/online-event-how-the-west-stole-democracy-from-the-arabs About the speaker: Elizabeth F. Thompson is Professor of history and the Mohamed Said Farsi Chair of Islamic Peace at the American University in Washington, DC. Her new book is titled How the West Stole Democracy from the Arabs: The Syrian Arab Congress of 1920 and the Destruction of its Historic Liberal-Islamic Alliance. The book offer a new argument for the importance of the Syrian Arab Kingdom in the history of democracy and the rise of anti-liberal Islamism in the Arab world. Dr Thompson is also author of Justice Interrupted: The Struggle for Constitutional Government in the Middle East and the prize-winning Colonial Citizens: Republican Rights, Paternal Privilege, and Gender in French Syria and Lebanon. She has received fellowships from the Carnegie Corporation of New York and Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars and is former co-director of the National Endowment for the Humanities seminar on the World War I in the Middle East.

Podcast in which Beacon Editor, Joe Davies, talks to Dr. Lina Khatib, Head of the Middle East and North Africa Programme at Chatham House, and Prof. Eugene Rogan, Director of the Middle East Centre at St. Antony's College, University of Oxford, on "What can - and should - the West do to support the Syrian people?".In 2011, the Syrian people took to the street to peacefully protest against the Assad regime, demanding democratic reforms and the release of political prisoners. The past 7 years since has seen the West fail to prevent the regime's chemical attacks on innocent civilians, fail to take sufficient steps to protect the estimated 5 million refugees that have fled Syria, and fail to help Syria shift to a path of peacebuilding and reconciliation. These are issues the West must not continue to ignore. But, what can be done to ensure a transition to a new leader, and a democratic regime in Syria? Or is an emboldened Assad an inevitable outcome of this violent conflict? Put simply, what can - and should - the West do now to support the Syrian people?
Il viaggio di Kiosk continua con una puntata tutta all'insegna della memoria, o meglio di una pluralità di memorie – spesso contese, distorte o rimosse – da declinarsi sempre al plurale, e da interrogare continuamente. Una puntata in apparenza assai poco politica rispetto alle precedenti, ma dove la componente politica affiora di continuo, perché il ricordo, che ci piaccia o meno, non è mai materia inerte o neutrale, sistematizzata una volta per tutte.Iniziamo raccontando del rapporto, assai problematico, fra la comunità afroamericana e l'URSS. Il punto di partenza è un recente articolo della scrittrice Igiaba Scego intitolato “B(l)ack to Ussr”, dove si racconta del viaggio di un gruppo di scrittori afroamericani a Mosca e poi in Asia Centrale negli anni trenta per un film di propaganda politica contro la discriminazione che non sarà mai realizzato.Quanto ci resta, invece, è una notevole massa iconografica di poster, manifesti e locandine nonscevra, a sua volta, di stereotipi involontari e pregiudizi.Proseguiamo con un'intervista esclusiva a Eugene Rogan, professore all'Università di Oxford e autore di libri tradotti in 18 lingue, che ci parla, a cent'anni dalla fine della Grande Guerra, di che cosa rappresentò quella fase drammatica per le diverse nazioni dell'Impero ottomano. Dal genocidio armeno alla nascita del Medio Oriente moderno, la fine di questo stato multireligioso e sovranazionale rappresentò una svolta storica di cui ancora oggi, a ben vedere, sono assai evidenti gli effetti, spesso in negativo.Passiamo quindi a quella che è forse la componente più di sovente rimossa fra i crimini commessi dai paesi dell'Asse: ci riferiamo al Porrajmos, il genocidio di rom e sinti ad opera dei nazi-fascisti, che portò alla morte di mezzo milione di persone. Per riscoprire questa pagina importante, ci siamo affidati al racconto di un interprete d'eccezione: Santino Spinelli, musicista e docente di cultura romani, la cui famiglia fu vittima di quella persecuzione.Concludiamo con una storia carica di speranza. Nel 1992 da una Sarajevo sotto assedio partì verso il nostro Paese un convoglio carico di bambini. Molti di loro, prelevati dall'orfanotrofio cittadino finito sotto i colpi dei cecchini, non rientrarono mai in patria. Furono dati in adozione in Italia, nonostante i loro genitori fossero in vita. Una tragica storia ma a lieto fine, almeno per due di loro. Il giornalista Andrea Oskari Rossini ha permesso infatti, grazie a un suo servizio, che oggi una di queste madri riabbracciasse due di quegli orfani, cresciuti in Italia. Abbiamo intervistato il giornalista, che ci ha parlato del suo lavoro e della sua esperienza di vita nei Balcani.Il tutto condito con musiche tutte ad est, brani di ieri e di oggi, in un viaggio immaginario che ci porta dall'Iran fino alla Germania orientale.

At the beginning of the 20th century, most of the territory that we call the Middle East- including Syria, Iraq, Israel and Turkey- were part of the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman alliance w/ Germany and Austria-Hungary during World War I provided Britain and France w/ the opportunity to divide the once-great empire into many states based on European imperial ambitions. In this episode Bob and Ben speak w/ Dr. Eugene Rogan to learn more about why the Ottoman Empire was divided, how that process explains a lot about the region today, and how this history can help us make better decisions today. Dr. Eugene Rogan is Director of the Middle East Centre at St Antony's College, University of Oxford. He is author of The Arabs: A History (Penguin, 2009, 3rd edition 2018), which has been translated in 18 languages and was named one of the best books of 2009 by The Economist, The Financial Times, and The Atlantic Monthly. His new book, The Fall of the Ottomans: The Great War in the Middle East, 1914-1920, was published in February 2015. We'd also like to say a special thanks to the family of Roscoe L. Strickland Jr. for providing the support that brought Dr. Rogan to MTSU for our annual Strickland Scholars Program. For more on the Strickland program, click here.

Devastated Lands: Lebanon at the End of the Great War, 1918 The First World War had brought an unprecedented degree of loss and suffering to the people of Lebanon.
