This episode explores the complex evolution of modern Syria, tracing its journey from Ottoman rule through French colonialism to independence. We examined how the Ottoman Empire's decline created a power vacuum that led to the French Mandate period, which significantly impacted Syria's social, political, and administrative structures. The narrative covers the Syrian people's resistance to colonial rule, including the Great Syrian Revolt of 1925-1927, and analyzes how colonial policies continue to influence Syria's development long after gaining independence in 1946. Through this historical lens, we gain insight into how colonial experiences shaped Syria's national identity, political institutions, and its place in the modern Middle East.
