Five countries which surround Lebanon are Jordan, Syria, Turkey, Cyprus and Israel or Palestine in reality.In 1943, Lebanon gained independence from France. Then the Christians held the power and Lebanese Muslims had little control over Lebanon. This contributed to increased tensions 
between them. In 1975 the tensions reached their peak, because the Christians killed a bus full of Palestinians in downtown Beirut. There were two result of the tensions which were revenge killings and violence that began to spiral out of control. In 1982, the Israeli army invaded the city witha the aim of removing the Palestinians Liberation Organization. However, a peace deal was reached in 1989. The human and economic cost of the conflict were Between 150,000 to 200,000 people ded, around 25% of population has left the country and Beirut's economy was paralyzed.
