The territory under the Mandate System of the League of Nations were divided into how many groups?

Correct option is B

​

• The Mandate System was established by the League of Nations after World War I to administer the former territories of the Central Powers, especially those of the Ottoman Empire and Germany, which were considered not yet ready for full self-governance.The mandated territories were classified into three groups based on their level of development:

1. Class A Mandates:Former Ottoman territories (e.g., Iraq, Syria, Palestine).These regions were considered almost ready for independence.Administered by Britain and France as "tutelage".

2. Class B Mandates:African regions (e.g., Tanganyika, Cameroon, Togoland).Less developed, required more direct control and administration.

3. Class C Mandates:Sparsely populated areas (e.g., South West Africa, Pacific Islands).Administered as integral parts of the mandate-holding powers under stricter control.
