and Israel.
Israel became a state in 1948, so all of history prior to 1948 happened.
From 1920-1948, Israel and the Palestinian Territories were part of the British Mandate for Palestine, when Great Britain controlled the area.
Some of the major events during this period were the increased Jewish Immigration to the Mandate of Palestine and their modernization of the territory. This brought in Arab immigration from neighboring territories who wished to live in the more sanitary and developed conditions in Palestine. This combined immigration led to massive population increases. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, the Jewish population was becoming more significant and Arab leaders and militias urged the British to prevent further Jewish immigration. This resulted in the British rescinding Jewish immigration rights to the territory and culminated with the 1939 White Papers permitting only nominal Jewish immigration. During World War II, Palestine remained off-limits to Jews wishing to flee the Holocaust. This, combined with the White Papers, led many Jewish leaders to openly resist the British Occupation. In 1947, the British relented and brought the Palestinian and Jewish question to the United Nations. The slaughter of the Holocaust and American and Soviet pressure galvanized the world to provide for a Jewish State and an Arab State. The Palestinian Jewish population (who could anachronistically be called Israelis) approved of the Partition whereas the Palestinian Arab population refused further territorial concessions. The previously formed Jewish militias began to confront Arab militias in the Jewish-Arab Engagement as early as mid-1947. When Israel Declared Independence in 1948, the War became an international conflict involving Arab Armies from seven additional nations.
It depends on how the question is read.
If it refers to the period before the creation of the Ancient Kingdom of Israel, the region was called Canaan, but it was not a unitary territory. Rather it was replete with dozens of city-states and tribal confederations.
If it refers to the period before the creation of the Modern State of Israel, no independent country had existed on that land for nearly 750 years. That last, prior independent country was the Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem. Between the fall of that state in 1199 and the independence of the State of Israel in 1948, the region was occupied or colonized by various empires all of whom treated the area as a backwater. The most recent such period was from 1919-1948 when the territory was the British Mandate of Palestine.
The Land of Israel has had many names: Canaan, Land of Israel, Judah, Judea, Idumea, Syria-Palestina, Palestine, the Holy Land, etc.
