Map notes: In 1947, all of Mandatory Palestine was controlled by Britain. https://time.com/3445003/mandatory-palestine/ The 1947 map shows landowners, not population. Census data shows it was about 32% Jewish and 68% Arab. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographic_history_of_Palestine_(region)#British_Mandate_era https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_land_purchase_in_Palestine#/media/File%3APalestine_Index_to_Villages_and_Settlements%2C_showing_Land_in_Jewish_Possession_as_at_31.12.44.jpg https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandatory_Palestine#/media/File%3APalestine_Distribution_of_Population_1947_UN_map_no_93(b).jpeg Egypt occupied Gaza and Jordan occupied the West Bank & Jerusalem from '48 to '67. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/brief-history-gazas-centuries-war-2023-10-13/#:~:text=culminating%20in%20war,south%20of%20Ashkelon https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/11/10/palestine-jordan-will-not-reannex-the-west-bank/#:~:text=During%20the%201948,the%20United%20Nations
