Lebanon's Future: One State or Two?

Ever wondered about the countries in the Middle East and how they were created? Let's talk about Lebanon. Once a vibrant place with Beirut, the 'Paris of the Middle East,' it's now facing serious issues. The problem started when the Maronite Christians, handed power after World War I, included Muslim-majority areas in their new country. This didn't work out. Christians lost their majority, and tensions rose. The result? A brutal civil war lasting 15 years. Fast forward to today, and things are still complex. Hezbollah, backed by Iran, has a strong grip on the country. They've been clashing with Israel, sometimes even starting wars. The UN wants them to disarm, but that hasn't happened. To make things worse, Lebanon is without a president, and many locals are tired of Hezbollah's rule. Recently, Israel took action, targeting Hezbollah leaders and their weapons. Some Lebanese people are quietly glad about this. But what's next? Can Lebanon become a fair democratic country for all, or is it time to consider something different? Maybe a smaller, mainly Christian state? It's not an easy question to answer.
