01French policy in Syria and Lebanon

  • They tore Syria into several small states: Aleppo, the Druze state, the Alawite state and Damascus.
  • They controlled the economies of the countries by tying the Syrian and Lebanese currencies to the French franc.
  • French officials filled most of the key posts, and others besides them.
