Lebanon, Syria, and Israel

Explanation:

Phoenicia was an ancient civilization that stretched across the narrow coastal strip of Syria, crossing through territory of Israel to present-day Lebanon), 240 km in length and about 20 km in width. The Phoenicians, an ancient naval-trading nation, ruled the Mediterranean Sea and founded a series of independent city-states that sometimes formed alliances under the hegemony of one of them, first Sidon and then Tire, who gained dominion over the Phoenician cities.
