Syrian Revolution, or Druse Rebellion of 1925-27

Years: 1925 - 1927

The Syrian Revolution, by far the largest, most widespread, and most organized Syrian revolt against the French Mandate, starts in Jabal el Druze and spreads to Damascus, Qalamoun, Hamah, Golan Heights and south-eastern Lebanon.

It is led by the prominent Druze leader Sultan Pasha al-Atrash.

“The lack of a sense of history is the damnation of the modern world.”

― Robert Penn Warren, quoted by Chris Maser (1999)
