Answer: The mandate system allowed Europeans take control over the resources of Asian countries.

Explanation:

World War 1 changed the Middle East in a way which wasn't witnessed before. The Europeans completed the takeover of certain territories like Iraq, Palestine, Syria, Lebanon and Arabia. During World War 1, Britain and France sent agents and armies into the Middle East to instigate rebellion and seize Syria, Pakistan and Iran.

In 1916, British and French diplomats agreed secretly on dividing the Middle East. The agreement was later replaced by another agreement which created a mandate system of British and French control. According to the mandate system, Lebanon and Syria went to the French while Palestine, Iraq and three Ottoman provinces went to the British.

The possession of the defeated Asian countries were governed by the victorious countries as it was believed that the defeated countries were not ready to govern themselves. The mandate system gave power to the Europeans especially Britain and France as they exerted their influence over the Middle East. This got many Arabs angry as they wanted to have control over their resources themselves rather than being controlled by Europeans.
