Jordan–Lebanon relations
bilateral diplomatic relations
Jordanian–Lebanese relations are the relations between Jordan and Lebanon, two West Asia nations. Jordan has an embassy in Beirut and Lebanon has an embassy in Amman.
History
Lebanon and Jordan are two countries that lie in the Levant region and share extensively close cultural and historic ties. This common heritage between Jordan and Lebanon was eventually developed closer and more deeply by their connection to the Christian Bible and strong religious diversity in both countries. Both have been occupied by various outside powers, from the ancient Persian Empire in the east, to the Macedonian Empire and the Roman Empire, during the spread of the Arab Caliphate, and the adoption of Islam leading to further occupations by the Ottoman Empire. At the end of World War I, both countries were occupied by the British Empire and France; nonetheless their cultural ties remain unchanged.
Modern ties between Jordan and Lebanon renewed in the 20th century following the departure of the two European colonial powers. For most of their relationship, Jordan and Lebanon have shared cordial relations. In 1970 however, instability started in Jordan and Lebanon with the PLO and Jordanian Armed Forces fighting in Amman, culminating in the Black September event. Jordan was able to expel the PLO to Lebanon, but the Lebanese were not able to control the situation and soon it erupted into the Lebanese Civil War, which intensified sectarian conflicts within Lebanon.
