Palestine

The name "Palestine" was attributed to the Land of Israel on both banks of the Jordan River as a region not a country and remained in use in European languages even in modern times. After the end of the British Mandate and the establishment of the State of Israel, due to the indistinguishability in Arabic and foreign languages between the name "Palestina" and its Arabic version, "Palestine", the concept in these languages became dual:

It is used as the historical name of the entire country (Israel) but is also identified today with the national Arab entity that formed in it in the 20th century.

The region, When the Roman Empire conquered Judea and colonized it they gave it a colonial name, Palestine, in order to disconnect the Jews from their land. They also exiled Jews away(that’s why you have Jews all over the world they are descends of those Jews) while those who stayed were inferior to them.

After the Roman Empire many other empires have colonized the land, only in the time of the Ottoman Empire colonization, Arabs begin entering the land in order to find work. Mind you that Jews were still living there.

It was still called Palestine ever since the Roman Empire changed it)

Palestine is Judea, the Roman name for ‘Land of the Jews’ when the Roman Emperor Hadrian re-named this land as Palestina in 135 CE. Since then, it was never an Islamic State. ‘In the 2nd century CE, the Romans crushed the Jewish revolt and Judea was renamed Palestina.
