Answer:
France and Britain have fought many wars throughout their history. They fought wars on French soil, on the territory of other European nations, in Asia (India), in America (Canada) and on the seas.
Both were powerful kingdoms - and later empires - looking for trade expansion and benefits, colonization of new lands or countries as a way to gain access to raw materials or dominate new markets, or for control of maritime routes.
Explanation:
Both believe that the land belongs to them.
Historical background: The land was called Philistia when the Romans had control of the land. Palestinians are Arab speaking people who were from other Arab countries, however, they weren't for some reason allowed to go back to their homeland . It is said that Palestinians never really had control of Philistia. The land was actually under the rule of the Ottoman Empire (lasted about 400 years I believe), the British (from 1918, I believe to when the UN declared Israel a nation in 1948), and Israel.
I personally don't agree with the ideology that both sides are right because historical artifacts that have been found, lead to me believing that Jewish civilization has been in the region a lot longer than Palestinians. There have been a lot of artifacts under the Temple Mount, where the Dome of the Rock sits, that lead archeologist's to believe that for at least 3,000 years there have been a remnant of Jews who have lived in Israel.
Hopefully this helped and good luck.
The Tanzimat Reforms was the second attempt in the nineteenth century to modernize the government, military, trade, law and society in the Ottoman Empire. The overall goal of these reforms was to have the country catch up with the development reached by European countries in the last couple of centuries. However, the <em>ulema</em>, or religious establishment of the Ottoman Empire objected top these reforms on the basis of their 'infidel' origin.
Even though the Tanzimat reforms were welcomed by the Ottoman society, further political changes were required, such as the the issuing of a constitution and the creation of a parliament to share the political power with the monarchy. The sultan felt the reforms were going too fast and too far, while different groups within the Ottoman society, such as the Young Turks, felt that more was needed and quickly.
As more and more politicians opposing the monarchy became members of the parliament, constituting an effective political opposition counterbalancing the sultan's authority, the sultan ordered its suspension in 1908 leading to the Young Turk Revolution. The next year, the parliament was restored and the basis for the abolition of the monarchy was laid down as local government administrations, which had effectively rejected reforms to a great extent, were mostly replaced by reformist administrations.
