Your research is appreciated unfortunately none of your documentation represents a nation of Palestine. What you have submitted are maps representing Ottoman Syria, formally known as the British Mandate of Palestine which the British divided into two administrative districts. The British exclusively named the region palestine, no one living at the time refered to themselves as "Palestinians". One district the British named palestine and the other was named transjordan. Neither districts were nations until Jordanian independence on 25 May 1946 and the founding of Israel on 14 May 1948. Prior to WWI the area was part of the Ottoman Empire from 1516 - 1918 and was NOT called Palestine, nor did it exist as a seperate nation. Prior to that the region was ruled by the Mamluk Sultanate from 1215 - 1517 and from that period the region was not a nation nor was it called Palestine.
