The Assyrians defeated Israel and reduced it to a mere city-state, based on the city of Samaria. Finally, in 722 BCE, they overran Samaria and deported up to 40,000 people - about one fifth of the population. Many of the remainder fled to Judah or to Egypt. From now on, Israel simply ceased to exist. In the south, King Ahaz saved Judah from the fate of Israel and incorporated his kingdom into the Assyrian economy. His policy led Judah to an unprecedented prosperity, in which Jerusalem and Judah experienced dramatic demographic growth. His successor, Hezekiah, took a reckless decision to rebel against Assyria, leading to the utter devastation of Judah. The next king, Manasseh, saved Judah from annihilation by a policy of cooperation with Assyria. Judah continued as a political entity until overrun by the Babylonians.
