Article description: (description) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The Ottoman sultan Salim I invaded Syria in 1516 and ruled the region of Mount Lebanon indirectly through appointed Lebanese emirs. As a Sunni Muslim empire, Ottoman rulers granted the various religious minority groups of Mount Lebanon relative autonomy in governing their own affairs, allowing Druze, Maronite Christian, and other confessional communities semi-independence in enacting their own laws. The Ottomans controlled Lebanon until the empire splintered at the end of World War I, at which point administration of the region passed to the French Mandate.[1] |
