The history of the State of Palestine describes the creation and evolution of the State of Palestine in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
During the ''British Mandatory period,'' numerous plans of partition of Palestine were proposed but without the agreement of all parties. In 1947, the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine was voted for. The leaders of the Jewish Agency for Palestine accepted parts of the plan, while Arab leaders refused it. This triggered the 1947–1949 Palestine war and led, in 1948, to the establishment of the state of Israel on a part of Mandate Palestine as the Mandate came to an end. The Gaza Strip came under Egyptian occupation, and the West Bank was ruled by Jordan, before both territories were occupied by Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War.
Ancient land of Israel. Begins in the Southern Levant region of Western Asia during the Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age. The earliest known reference to "Israel" as a people or tribal confederation (see Israelites) is in the Merneptah Stele, an inscription from ancient Egypt that dates to about 1208 BCE, but the people group may be older.

The word Palestine derives from Philistia, the name given by Greek writers to the land of the Philistines, who in the 12th century b c, occupied a small pocket of land on the southern coast, between modern Tel Aviv–Yafo and Gaza. The Palestinians today can not call out that they are derived from the Philistianians. That would offer them such a small piece of land on the southern coast, between modern Tel Aviv–Yafo and Gaza.
