The State of Israel is a Western Asian country located on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea, bordering Lebanon on the north, Syria to the northeast, Jordan in the east, and Egypt to the southwest. Israel, the world's only predominantly Jewish state, has its roots in the biblical land of Israel, but was set off by the United Nations in 1947, following World War II, as a Jewish state.
