Answer: the oil reserve of the middle East

Step-by-step explanation:

France and Britain we're interested in the oil reserve that was stored up in the middle East, this was why they tried to create borders to show that they control that area or section. As world power, they needed this control same as they do for other economic reasons.

The oil was their greatest influence and consideration.
