Answer 2

While it is true that Kuwait and parts of southern Iraq were part of the Vilayet of Basra in the Ottoman Empire, the Vilayet of Basra constituted less than 30% of modern Iraq in terms of land area. Iraq was established by the British colonialists who united several different Ottoman territories under one monarchy and they divided Kuwait off of the main group.
