That depends when. In the time before Joshua, it was divided among the Canaanite tribes, their kings and city-states. In the time of the Judges, it was divided along the territories of the twelve Israelite tribes. In the time of the Israelite Kings, it was divided, with the Northern Kingdom (Samaria; the Ten Tribes) under Yerav'am (Jeroboam), and the Southern Kingdom of Judah under Rehav'am (Rehoboam). Yerav'am seceded the Ten Tribes from Rehav'am's kingdom because of a grievance over taxation (1 Kings ch.12).
