The State of Israel, referred to as Israel for short, is a country located in the Levant region of West Asia, on the southeast coast of the Mediterranean Sea, bordering Lebanon in the north, Syria and Jordan in the east and Egypt in the southwest.

Israel was founded in 1948, and it is the only country in the world with Jews as its main ethnic group. 1980, Israeli legislation recognized Jerusalem as the eternal and indivisible capital of the country.

1988 the Palestinian self-government declared Jerusalem as the capital of the Palestinian state. Jerusalem is actually controlled by Israel. In 20 17, the United States, Guatemala, Czech Republic and other countries recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and planned to move their embassies to Jerusalem.

According to the understanding reached by Israel and Palestine in 2000 and the general aspiration of the international community, Jerusalem is the capital of two countries, West Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, and East Jerusalem is the capital of Palestine, that is, one city, two houses, while the old city with special status is controlled by the international community.

Extended data:

Jews began to settle in Palestine in 1200 BC and lived for thousands of years. And established the kingdom of Israel here. Later, the kingdom was divided into two small kingdoms, which were destroyed by Assyria and Babylon respectively.

In A.D. 135, due to Jewish riots, the Roman Empire, which ruled the Palestinian area, expelled Jews from the area and moved in as non-Jewish residents, which started the wandering career of Jews and planted the seeds of future Israeli-Palestinian conflicts.

Because of the persecution and discrimination suffered by wandering Jews, the Zionist movement has never stopped. 19 17 Britain issued the Balfour declaration to express its support for the Zionist movement, and also set off several waves of Jewish return movements in Palestine, which made the proportion of local Jews rise continuously.

However, it has been 2000 years since the Jews left, and it has long been a traditional area of Arabs. This return has troubled the local Arab residents, so the increase of Arab-Israeli conflict is also directly proportional to the number of Jews.

However, the Zionist movement has become a trend, and Britain and other western countries have also expressed their support, although local Arab residents have expressed opposition and even resorted to force.

The modern state of Israel was still declared in May 1948, and appealed to Arabs for peace and nation-building. 1988165438+1October15th, the extraordinary meeting of the Palestinian national Council held in Algiers, Algeria, adopted the Palestinian declaration of independence.

Announced the establishment of a Palestinian state in the Palestinian areas in the West Bank and Gaza, with Jerusalem as its capital. At present, Palestine has an observer seat in the United Nations and has established formal diplomatic relations with most countries in the world.
