À propos de ce contenu audio

In 1946, the Emirate of Transjordan became the independent Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. But the path to sovereignty was anything but straightforward. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the final years of the British Mandate, the role of King Abdullah I ibn Hussein, the Arab League's influence, the 1946 Anglo-Transjordanian Treaty, and the controversial 1948 London Treaty that nearly derailed everything. They discuss the rise of Arab nationalism, the competing visions for Jordan's future, and how Abdullah's pragmatism shaped a nation. Key figures include Prime Ministers Samir al-Rifai and Tawfik Abu al-Huda, British High Commissioner Alec Kirkbride, and the enigmatic Glubb Pasha. From the streets of Amman to the halls of Whitehall, this is the untold story of Jordan's birth as a modern state—a tale of delicate diplomacy, shifting alliances, and the quiet determination of a king who outmaneuvered empires.
