Lebanon a Country Itself

Lebanon is a Republic government; this means that the people elect the head of state. After World War I, France was given a League of Nations over Lebanon and its neighbor Syria, which together had previously been a single political area in the Ottoman Empire. France divided them in 1920 into separate colonial administrations, drawing a border that separated mostly Muslim Syria from the religious communities in Lebanon, where Christians were then dominant. After 20 years of the French mandate regime, Lebanon's independence was proclaimed on Nov.26, 1941, but not full independence.
