Why was Israel called the land of Omri?

The biblical account, written centuries later, tells is that Omri was just one king in a long line of kings over Israel. However, recent historical evidence suggests that Omri may actually have been the first king of Israel (the northern kingdom). When the Assyrians called Israel 'the land of Omri', they would have been reflecting the view of the Israelites, who at that time believed their monarchy to have begun with Omri.

Who was responsible for moving the northern kingdom's capital to samaria?

King Omri of Israel was responsible for moving the northern kingdom's capital to Samaria. He established Samaria as the capital around the 9th century BCE after purchasing the hill from Shemer, which provided a strategically advantageous location. This decision was significant in solidifying the political and economic power of the northern kingdom of Israel. Omri's choice also set the stage for future rulers, including his son Ahab, to further develop the city.
