There was an Arab Kingdom of Syria that lasted from November 26, 1919 to July 24, 1920, when Britain and France carved up the Middle East into their protectorates under the Sykes-Picot Agreement. Its territory covered not only parts of modern-day Syria, but also Jordan and Lebanon. Its only king was Faisal bin Hussein bin Ali al-Hashemi, who reigned from March 8 to July 28, 1920. A year after his overthrow, he became the first King of Iraq.
