  • Back around 5,000 years ago, up until around the time of the writing of the Christian Bible, Jerusalem, located on the Eastern shore of the Mediterranian Sea, was the land of the Jewish people. In 9 AD, Jerusalem was under Roman rule, as they had captured it some cenrutries ago, but the Jewish were still allowed to live there.

In 1099, Jerusalem was overtaken by the Crusaders, causing most of the Jewish inhabitants to leave, eventurall falling to the Ottoman Turks in 1517. During the Second World War, the Jewish population of Europe experienced horrendous attrocitoes, accumulating as the Holocaust. After the war, the Jews did not want to return to where they used to live, so they fled around the world, in hopes that a place of safety could be discovered. By this time, Jerusalem and its surrounding area, called Palestine, were under the British mandate. Seeing as the Jews had nowhere to go, the United Nations began thinking of helping these displaced people.
