Lebanon is a country in Asia Minor. It was in the Eastern Roman Empire and the subsequent Ottoman Empire. Following World War I it became a League of Nations mandated territory of France (1921-1946) and the region was often referred to as The Levant. It is a very ancient land and occurs throughout ancient history, notably in Biblical times.
Following the Jewish invasions via immigration into Palestine in the 20th century and the subsequent oppressions, murders and expulsions of the Palestinian peoples, Lebanon now hosts vast refugee camps for them.
