The cause of the Israel-Palestine war is a complex issue that dates back to the early 20th century. Jews fleeing persecution in Europe wanted to establish a national homeland in what was then an Arab territory. The Arabs resisted, seeing the land as rightfully theirs. An early United Nations plan to give each group part of the land failed, and Israel and the surrounding Arab nations fought several wars over the territory. The first Arab-Israeli War began in 1948 when the State of Israel was created, sparking the conflict. The war ended in 1949 with Israel's victory, but 750,000 Palestinians were displaced, and the territory was divided into three parts: the State of Israel, the West Bank (of the Jordan River), and the Gaza Strip. Over the following years, tensions rose in the region, particularly between Israel and Egypt, Jordan, and Syria. The conflict has been about land, and the disputes between Israel and Palestine are well-manifested in the agriculture of Palestine. The current Israeli-Palestinian status quo began following Israeli military occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, in the 1967 Six-Day War. Various attempts have been made to resolve the conflict as part of the Israeli-Palestinian peace alongside other efforts to resolve the broader Arab- Israeli conflict
