BLUF: Again, you get quarter credit. You spelled your name right.
The Treaty (of sorts) was Article 3 of the Montevideo Convention on Rights and Duties of States December 26, 1933; "The political existence of the state is independent of recognition by the other states."(COMMENT)
I suppose the All Palestine Government (APG) could have claimed the Gaza Strip as their country, but nothing more. But the remainder of the territory was under some other control. So, there was a conflict between the APG territorial claim and reality.
And I suppose that even a claim on the Gaza Strip can be argued since the APG was subordinate to the Egyptian Military Governor even prior to the bogus announcement of the provisional government.
Most Respectfully,

Not really. The Palestinians claimed territory inside their own international borders. Those borders remained unchanged after the 1948 war. Palestine was under occupation but that does not change borders or sovereignty.But the remainder of the territory was under some other control. So, there was a conflict between the APG territorial claim and reality.
