Palestine, officially the State of Palestine, is a Southern Levant country in West Asia comprising the Israeli-occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip, collectively known as the occupied Palestinian territories. Israel has occupied the Palestinian territories since the 1967 war; the West Bank is currently divided into 165 Palestinian enclaves under partial civilian rule by the Palestinian Authority, and Israeli settlements under Israeli law in the West Bank settlements. Palestine share the vast majority of their borders with Israel, with the West Bank bordering Jordan to the east and the Gaza Strip bordering Egypt to the southwest. It has a total land area of 6,020 square kilometers while its population exceeds five million. Its proclaimed capital is Jerusalem, while Ramallah serves as its de facto administrative center. Gaza was its largest city prior to Israel's forced evacuations in 2023. Situated at a continental crossroad, the Palestine region was ruled by various empires and experienced various demographic changes from antiquity to the modern era. The region has religious significance.
