بريطــــــانيا بين المقــــاومة الشعبية وإنشاء المملكة العراقية 1920- 1921.

With the end of World War I, Britain took the lead in the Arab region, as well as annexing both Iraq and Palestine to it as two new regions to its possessions with the legitimacy of military victory, spoliation of the property of the defeated Turks. Britain must find effective mechanisms for how to benefit from these new "property" strategically and economically in order to support, develop and strengthen the position of its empire emerging from the war. However, as soon as that war ended, several developments emerged, based on which Britain changed its priorities in the region, the most prominent of which was the outbreak of the revolutions in 1919 in Egypt and 1920 in Iraq, in addition to uprisings and many problems in different places and for several reasons throughout the region.
This study aims to trace the floundering British policy towards Iraq, all the way to a royal declaration with British advisors, through a series of treaties, truces, and settlements regarding it, which took time and effort to achieve what it wanted in the end, despite the strong Iraqi revolution. Hence, this research does not aim to study in detail the many popular revolutions and uprisings that took place in the region during the years of war and shortly after the end of its military operations, nor to delve deeply into the developments that affected British policy in the region after the end of World War I, except to serve its subject. Rather, this research aims only to study the policy of long-term effort to achieve long-term goals, between the flexibility of the colonial plans that dealt with the developments and fluctuations of the violence of that popular resistance, which was created by the outbreak of a massive popular revolution in Iraq, which was more deadly and more brutal in its suppression, and then the response to All of this is to achieve the long-term goal behind its policies and plans in that region of the world, which was added to it shortly after the end of World War I, and behind which it was intended to be a support for an empire whose faltering state was clear, and whose path to the end was clear.
