The Ottoman Empire did what empires always do. They claim that everybody's land is theirs. They lost that claim when they lost the war. The Treaty of Lausanne returned the land to the people.
What land? What people?

As usual, you're circling back to your "Treaty of Lausanne invented the country of Pal'istan" conspiracy theory.

Write it 1000 times.

Treaty of Lausanne
Treaty of Lausanne

Which did not return the land to the Arabs who, like the Ottoman Turks, had also invaded the land and taken it from its original people after the Crusaders, who took it from the Arab Muslims, who took it from the Byzantine , who took it after the Romans, who took after the Greek from the indigenous people, the Jews who created a Nation on the land starting 3000 years ago.

After you have written it 1000 times, forget it and look for the truth, something you are so bad at.

The Treaty of Lausanne did not create anything. The new states were created by the Allied Powers. The Treaty of Lausanne merely released the territories to their respective new states.

Palestine's northern international border was set by the Sykes-Pecot Agreement in 1916. Palestine's southern international border was determined by Egypt's international border that was defined in 1906.

Palestine and Transjordan were already determined to be two separate states. Article 25 in the Palestine Mandate allowed that to happen. The international border between Palestine and Transjordan was approved by the League of Nations in 1922.

All this was finalized with the Treaty of Lausanne in 1924. The Palestinians became Palestinian nationals and Palestinian citizens by international law in 1924. They received Palestinian citizenship by domestic law in 1925.
 
Since land deeds did not exist in the Ottoman Empire until the middle of the 19th century, it is hard to tell.
Why would you assume that it is hard to know since land deeds did exist in the Ottoman Empire after 1856 when they started selling land?

Such records do exist but you do like to live in the world where all Arabs 'Owned" land and it was all "stolen" from them by the Jews.

A few rich Arabs bought land after 1856. Most were poor and could not afford one Dunham to their name.

It was all recorded by the Ottomans. The British kept those records. They are still available to this day.

It is no secret that the Ottoman Empire was screwing its people.
