Nothing, as the question is written.
Syria, Palestine, and Iraq were mandates/proto-states that were carved out of the Ottoman-controlled Middle East as a result of Sykes-Picot Agreement during World War I and were only realized in the Treaty of Versailles after World War I. As as a result, there was nothing to promise non-existent entities.
What the question is likely intending to ask is "What was promised to the Arabs concerning the regions that would become Syria, Palestine, and Iraq during World War I?" -- If that is the case, please see the Related Link below.

How did the McMahon-Hussein Correspondence conflict with the Balfour Declaration?
During the McMahon-Hussein correspondence in 1915/1916 the British promised the Arabs (Hussein was at their time their main spokesman) an own sovereign, independant country if they helf the British army defeating the Osman Empire during the 1st World War. Instead, not only did the Sykes-Picot agreement between France and England already divide the future Arab country in a french and a british part. With promising the influential Jews surrounding Chaim Weizman to form a Jewish homeland in Palastine (Balfour declaration), the British yet again had clashed the promise made by MacMahon to the Arabs.

What was palestine before world one?
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.
What was promised to the Arabs concerning the regions that would become Syria Palestine and Iraq during World War 1?
Each of those three merits a different response. The Hussein-McMahon Correspondence of 1915 is rather unclear as to specifics. Iraq: According to the HMC, Iraq should have been part of the unified Arab State under King Faisal. Syria: According to the HMC, most of Syria should have been part of the unified Arab State under King Faisal. However, the coastline areas of Syria (Alexandretta - now in Turkey, the Alawite Districts, and Lebanon) were excised from the borders of Syria promised to the Arabs. Palestine: The HMC does not mention or describe Palestine in any particular way (neither Israel/Palestine nor Jordan). However, if the cleft formed in Syria between the coastal areas and the internal areas was followed in Palestine, Israel/Palestine would not be promised, while Jordan would be. Most Arabs argue, however, that the lack of mention of Palestine in any way means that all of Palestine was promised to the Arabs since much of the HMC operated under those conditions.

What led to Palestinian conflict?
Briefly, the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Britain, the colonial power at the time, promised this in exchange for help during World War One. Similar promises were also made to the Arabs for their help during the same conflict, which is why it's sometimes called 'The twice-promised land'. Both sides feel the land is theirs and so far, no compromise solution to share it has been acceptable to either.

What does the land of Canaan symbolize?
A:Wayne T. Pitard (The Oxford History of the Biblical World, Before Israel) says that during the second millennium BCE, Canaan was the name often used for Palestine (the area west of the Jordan River), whose northern boundary fluctuated between southern and central Lebanon. However, modern scholars generally use the term in referring to the wider region in Syria-Palestine where a substantial cultural continuum defined as Canaanite can be discerned. Encompassing western Palestine, most of Lebanon, and coastal Syria as far north as Ugarit, this more extensive area was never considered a political or cultural unit by its ancient inhabitants.
