    That is such a warped view on history.

    Even Herodotus was referencing the region as Syria Palaestina, 500 years prior before the Romans merged two provinces together.

    Palestine/Syria was always the name, Judea was only ever a tiny fraction of that land.

    As for the Romans kicking everyone out (realistically they murdered/enslaved most), well no shit. We all have stories of the Romans doing that to our ancestors as well, the Romans and every other empire in history are famously shitty.
