Swing and a miss - France ended Arab rule in Syria, Britain had inked a deal giving Faisal control. The Hejaz people's who supported the revolt would be ousted by the Saudis and Jordan is one of the most successful Arab countries. Faisal would go on to rule iraq until his death, the monarchy there being ended by Ba'ath and pan Arab nationalism.
