Dr.. Joseph Bourashid , writer, and strategisThe Mutasarrifate of Mount Lebanon 1861-1914, in the period extending after the end of the unfortunate events in the mountain 1840-1860 and before the First World War, provided the steadfast mountain with autonomy, relative stability, economic prosperity and social contact…. Jezzine, which is in the heart of this steadfast mountain, enjoyed a field of success and brilliance!! In this article, I review some important and qualitative aspects of this field.

The Mutasarrifa of Mount Lebanon was formed from the following cazas: Chouf, Batroun, Matn, Jezzine, Kesrouan, Zahle, Koura, and Kasbah Deir al-Qamar. While Jezzine district was formed from the following areas: Jezzine, Tofah District, Jebel Rihan.

As for the official educational variables, according to the Sanameh Mutasarrifiyya of Mount Lebanon 1306 AH – 1888 AD, there are 35 schools in the Jezzine district (ie 11% as a percentage), and in the Jezzine district there are 23 schools, and this is what makes Jezzine, the city, the sub-district, and the district, a center of scientific, educational and cultural radiation. Very important, on a management level.


Thus, Jezzine shone in the time of the Mount Lebanon Mutasarrifate
