Palestine. Before that it was called Judea, and before that it was Israel. Its first name was Canaan.
If the question seeks to ask specifically before World War 1, Palestine was the term used for the general region of the southern Levant under Ottoman Turkish Occupation. The territory was administrated as part of three different wilayaat or governates: the Wilayat Beirut (which consisted of much of Lebanon and northern Israel/Palestine), Mutasaffirat al-Qods (which consisted of Jerusalem and the surrounding area in central Israel/Palestine), and Wilayat Dimashq (which consisted of much of Syria, Jordan, and the southern Negev Desert in Israel). The Palestinian Arabs had little to no power in the administration or politics of any of the three wilayaat, which were ruled entirely by Turkish nobility in Beirut, Damascus, and Istanbul.
