Kingdom of Iraqball was an independent Arab countryball in the Middle East lasting from 1932 to 1958.
History
The Kingdom of Iraqball under UKball's administration, was created in 1921, following the 1920 Iraqi Revolt against the proposed British Mandate of Mesopotamia, and enacted via the 1922 Anglo-Iraqi Treaty and a 1924 undertaking by UKball to the League of Nationsball to fulfill the role as Mandatory Power.
Faisal ibn Husayn, who had been proclaimed King of Syriaball by a Syrian National Congress in Damascus in March 1920, was ejected by Franceball in July of the same year. Faisal was then granted by the British the territory of Iraqball, to rule it as a kingdom, with the British Royal Air Force (RAF) retaining certain military control, but de facto, the territory remained under UKball until 1932.
The civil government of postwar Iraq was headed originally by the High Commissioner, Sir Percy Cox, and his deputy, Colonel Arnold Wilson. British reprisals after the murder of a British officer in Najaf failed to restore order. The most striking problem facing the British was the growing anger of the nationalists, who continued to fight against the imposition of British authority. British administration had yet to be established in Iraqi Kurdistanball.
The Kingdom of Iraqball gained independence in 1932. In 1941 it joined the Axis after the coup very stupid decison but UKball occupied it and installed a puppet government. After WW2 it became one of the founding members of UNball and in 1955 created CENTO or the Baghdad pact, an anti-communist alliance of various Middle Eastern countries and UKball.
Then in 1958, it created the Arab Federationball with Jordanball but it didn't last long since another coup overthrew the monarchy and the Kingdom of Iraqball became the Iraqi Republicball, or as we know it today: Iraqball.
