On a more ancient history basis, the Holy Land can be considered the area now occupied by Israel, but in the past, the area was a bit larger than that. If it is defined as Judea, then we have the best starting point to answer the question.
Once again, on the ancient history answer to this query, we have Judea as the ancient home of the Jewish people. When Judea was independent, trouble came from the conquest of Alexander The Great.
Upon his early demise, his empire which covered Judea, came under the Greek sphere of influence.
Soon after, Judea became a state within the Roman Empire. This situation lasted several hundred years. Following the fall of Rome in 453 AD, the area was part of the Byzantine empire.
This situation also lasted hundreds of years until the Ottoman Turks conquered Constantinople and controlled Judea as well.
Most recently, before the inception of the new Jewish State, the League of Nations after WW1, assigned the UK to rule what was called Palestine.
They did so during and after WW2. Finally the UN granted Statehood to Israel in 1948.
