WAS LEBANON EVER PART OF TURKEY?

Yes, parts of modern-day Lebanon were once part of the Ottoman Empire, which was based in present-day Turkey. The Ottoman Empire controlled Lebanon from the early 16th century until the end of World War I in 1918. Following the war, Lebanon was placed under French mandate, leading to its eventual independence in 1943. Thus, while Lebanon was never a part of Turkey as a modern nation-state, it was historically part of the territories governed by the Ottoman Empire.
