Answer: To keep power and prevent support for the French

Explanation:

When the Naturalization Act was passed in 1798, the United States stood on the brink of war with France. The Federalist party believed that many immigrants would side with France if war had broken out so they tried to limit the number of immigrants that could become citizens so that they do not negatively influence any war effort.

They also wanted to keep power away from the Democratic-Republican party under Jefferson who had massive support amongst immigrants. They feared that if more immigrants became citizens, they would vote the Federalists out of power.

VikaD [51]

The mandate system had the effect of creating new borders and new countries that exist to this day in the Middle East.  It also set up some future issues for Middle East conflict.

Context/detail:

When World War I erupted, the Ottoman Empire sided with Germany as part of the "Central Powers."  In the end, the Central Powers lost and the Turkish  empire of the Ottomans ceased to exist as an empire.  Turkey remained as a country, but it lost control over other territories that it had held before.

The League of Nations created a system for governing former German and Ottoman territories, called "the mandate system."  The mandate system authorized a member nation of the League of Nations to govern a former German or Turkish colonial area after the conclusion of World War I.  There were mandate territories for former German territories in Africa and Asia, as well for former Ottoman territories in the Middle East.  

The former Turkish provinces of Syria, Iraq and Palestine in the Middle East were divided into a French mandate territory and British mandate territory.  The British mandate rule over Palestine, in particular, has much to do with the history of the development of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
