Abstract: Abstract With the help of Britain, King Abdullah I’s regime strengthened, and state institutions were built. If he was dependent on Britain, the latter protected the Hashemite regime from external and internal threats. The strategic alliance between the two, reflected in the World War II, enabled Britain to support King Abdullah’s political ambitions, leading to the military occupation of the West Bank and its annexation later to Jordan to prevent the establishment of an Arab state in Palestine.
