(2) Britain received a larger territorial mandate than France did

(3) none of the territories were turned over to German control as they had been promised

(4) the boundaries failed to fully recognize competing religious and ethnic interests

The Ottoman Empire thought it could easily conquer the divided territories ( 1 )

Explanation:

The division of the mandates into several states was done by the western European colonial masters ( Britain, France and Italy ) after the world war 1. these divided mandates were partitioned into different territories under the control of the British , French and Italians. this was done in a bid to remove the domination of the Ottoman Empire that dominated the Middle east before the war .

The Ottoman Empire continued to cause conflicts and war against the divided mandates with hope of  retaining  the empire because they thought they could easily conquer the divided territories. but the Empire finally collapsed after several years
