Jordan's history dates back to several tribes that inhabited this country as old and the most important of them: the Ma'awis, the Adomis and the Ammonians. These tribes have been affected by the Canaanite cultural tide in Palestine, as well as by the Aramaians since 1500q. M.L. ' Jordan was subject to the Assyrian, Chaldean, Farsi and Romanian rule until it was settled by the first Muslim Arabs. Roman monuments also remain in Jerash and the Roman amphitheatre in Amman. Muslims also left many castles, palaces and other Islamic monuments.

The Ottomans took control of Jordan during their campaign on the Arab East, and it was of particular importance to them as the road of the Shami pilgrimage, as well as the road to land trade, paying the many funds to the elders of the tribes that inhabit this area to secure the road of pilgrimage. The Ottomans divided Jordan into several administrative areas, most notably the Balqa district, the Ajloun district, and the Karak district.

Faisal bin al-Hussein's Kingdom of Arabia was formed in Syria in 1918 following the Great Arab Revolution. In 1920 Prince Abdullah bin al-Hussein entered Jordan and urged Jordanians to get rid of French rule, but the French government hired his brother Prince Faisal bin al-Hussein to avert this threat and promised him that Arab issues would be addressed later. Britain established the Emirate of eastern Jordan in 1920, with several governments, most notably: the government of Ajloun and then the government of Karak.

In 1921, Prince Abdullah bin al-Hussein arrived in Amman, took office in Jordan, and met with British Colonial Minister Winston Churchill and Herbert Samuel, British High Representative to Palestine. In September 1922, the League of Nations agreed to place eastern Jordan under mandatory authority over Palestine. On March 22, 1946, Britain agreed to end its assignment to eastern Jordan and signed a treaty of alliance and friendship between the two countries, and Bua 'a Abdullah bin al-Hussein as King of the Kingdom of Jordan, to be genetic to his male sons.
