/* why this page focuses on the population of Palestine; but states no data about the number of its citizens? Especially between WWI & 1948 */ new section[edit]

Hi all, this is my 1st contribution to Wikipedia; so please be patient with me

I am curious to know why this page focus on the population of Palestine; but states no data about the number of its citizens? For example, this page from Survey of Palestine states that almost 1/3rd of The Jewish population of Palestine as of 1947 were citizens!

Pay attention to paragraph 51 on page 208, here is a scanned page

https://www.palestineremembered.com/Articles/A-Survey-of-Palestine/Story6649.html

As is, you are leaving the reader with the impression that the numbers for population & citizens are the same; and clear that isn't the case. Palestine was forced to receive European Jewish refugees many of whom were not citizens

take care
