What if the French had not integrated the Alawite State in Syria and it became an independent state? This would leave Syria landlocked. What would the Alawite State look like? It's worth noting that Latakia, for example, was mostly Sunni at the time while the Alawites inhabited the countryside. The Sunnis and the Christians were landowners and the Alawites lived in their land. I suspect the Alawite State would be more Francophile than rump Syria. It would probably still he hostile towards Israel, though.
