Not counting Edom and Moab (over whom Solomon had held dominion), Judah was about 1/3 the size of Solomon's kingdom, and Israel (the Ten Tribes) was about two-thirds. However, the relative sizes sometimes grew or shrank.
After Solomon's death, Israel split into the two kingdoms of Judah and Israel. Israel now had ten tribes and Judah had two.
After Solomon's death, the Kingdom of Israel split into two separate kingdoms. Ten northern tribes formed the Kingdom of Israel, led by Jeroboam, while the southern tribes of Judah and Benjamin remained loyal to Solomon's son, Rehoboam, establishing the Kingdom of Judah. This division marked a significant turning point in the history of the Israelite people.
That would be the kingdom of Israel. The Southern Kingdom was called Judah.

AnswerThe Bible says that after the death of Solomon, the northern tribes rebelled from the kingdom of Israel and created their own kingdom called Israel, while the former kingdom settled for the name Judah.However, some scholars believe that there was no King Solomon and that there never was a United Monarchy of Israel. They say that Israel and Judah were always separate, with their own pottery styles, culture and distinct dialects of the Hebrew language.
After King Solomon's death, Israel separated into two Kingdoms - the Northern Kingdom of Israel which consisted primarily of 10 of the 12 tribes of Israel, and the Southern Kingdom of Judah which consisted primarily of tribe of Judah and Benjamin. It should be noted however, that each Kingdom had members of all 12 tribes of Israel.
