League of Nations mandates were former colonies and territories of the German and Ottoman Empires administered on behalf of the League of Nations by one of several Mandatory Powers: Britain, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, France, Belgium and Japan.

Three German territories in Europe were also governed by the League of Nations, however not as mandated territories: the Free City of Danzig, the Territory of the Saar Basin and the Memel territory.
