   B. Israel

Explanation:  The kingdom of Israel was established in the land of Canaan, which God had promised to the Jews as a promised land. The Jewish people themselves consisted of twelve tribes toward the twelve sons of Jacob. After the rise of the kingdom under David and especially under his son Solomon, there was the desertion and the crumbling of the empire. Namely, many enemies of the Jews after the death of Solomon attacked the Jews and a large part, i.e. the northern part was separated from the region around Jerusalem that is known as Judah by one of the tribes of Judah. The rest of the Jewish territory fell under the control of the conqueror, more precisely ten northern tribes were enslaved, and that part remained under the name of Israel.
