Answer 1

The correct answer is The countries in the Agreement wanted to take lands controlled by the Ottoman Empire when it lost the war.

The division of the Ottoman Empire was planned in several secret agreements made by the Allies at the beginning of World War I, notably the Sykes-Picot Agreement in 1916. The Sykes-Picot Agreement was a 1916 secret agreement between Britain and France, with the assent of Russia, which defined its mutually agreed upon spheres of influence and control in southwest Asia, under the control of the decline of the Ottoman Empire.
