palestine became the "british mandate of palestine" and was split in half. the eastern half of palestine became the "emirate of transjordan" to provide a throne for another of husayn's sons, abdullah. the western half of palestine was placed under direct british administration. the jewish population of palestine which numbered less than 8 percent in 1918 was given free rein to immigrate, buy land from absentee landlords, set up a shadow government in waiting and establish the nucleus of a state under the protection of the british army which suppressed a palestinian revolt in 1936. most of the arabian peninsula fell to another british ally, ibn saud. saud created the kingdom of saudi arabia in 1932.
