- Abstract:
The article discusses the refugees and refugee settlement in Syria during the French mandate period of 1920 through 1939, including their impact on the development of a Syrian national border. An overview of the refugees to Syria, including Kurds from Turkey (or Anatolia), Assyrians from Iraq and Armenians from Turkey, is provided. Syrian Arab nationalists' attitudes towards the French's policy on refugees, including in regard to Syrian sovereignty under the League of Nations, are discussed.
