FLAG KINGDOM OF IRAQ UNDER BRITISH ADMINISTRATION
The Kingdom of Iraq under British Administration, or Mandatory Iraq
was created in 1921, following the
1920 Iraqi Revolt against the proposed British Mandate of Mesopotamia, and enacted via the 1922
Anglo-Iraqi Treaty.
Faisal ibn Husayn, who had been proclaimed King of Syria by a Syrian National Congress in Damascus
in March 1920, was ejected by the French in July of the same year. Faisal was then granted by the
British the territory of Iraq, to rule it as a kingdom, with the British Royal Air Force (RAF) retaining
certain military control, though de facto; the territory remained under British administration until 1932.
