To which country did Israel's land originally belong?

The land of Israel was originally Palestine.

The area where Palestine and Israel are located, 1228, the Crusaders led by the Holy Roman Empire signed an agreement from Egypt and got this area. Finally, the Mongols came, a scuffle broke out, and the Egyptians regained control of the area. From the16th century, it became a part of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, under the jurisdiction of the Governor of Sham Province, and remained for hundreds of years. By the outbreak of World War I, the Ottoman Turkish Empire was defeated, and Britain and France gained jurisdiction in the Middle East.

At the beginning of the 20th century, with the approval of Sultan of Ottoman Turkish Empire, European Jews began to immigrate to this area. After Britain and France defeated the Ottoman Empire and gained jurisdiction in the Middle East, they even allowed Jewish immigrants to enter. At the same time, the League of Nations approved the Balfour Declaration in 1922, entrusting Britain with direct custody of Palestine and helping to establish a Jewish state in this region.
