The Tanakh (Jewish Bible) records that there was a unified kingdom of all the Israelites before it split into Northern (Ten Tribes) and Southern (Judah and Benjamin). The unified kingdom existed under the sovereignty of Saul, then David, and then Solomon.
After the division of the Kingdom: The northern (10 tribe) Kingdom was often called the Kingdom of Israel or even the Kingdom of Ephraim (the largest of those 10 tribes); the southern (2 tribe) Kingdom was called the Kingdom of Judah.
Lester L Grabbe (Ancient Israel) says that although almost all scholars have abandoned the Patriarchical period and invasion of Canaan, there remains some support for the existence of a United Monarchy under Kings Saul, David and Solomon. Nevertheless, he describes the biblical, Jerusalem-centred United Monarchy as an anachronism and says there is a growing consensus that Omri was actually the first king of Israel, and in the north only.
Saul, David and Solomon probably existed, but some early passages in The Bible, such as 1 Samuel 22:6 (which describes Saul as holding court under a tree, not in a palace or even a long-house) point to Saul as merely a tribal chieftain. Scholarly views are divided as to whether even David and Solomon could be considered kings in the traditional sense, or as local chieftains.
The combined population of Israel and Judah was too small in the tenth century BCE to support the grand kingdom described in the Bible, and the territory of Judah was too poor and weak compared to the the northern kingdom to have dominated its people. Grabbe's emphatic view is that if indeed there was a United Monarchy, it was not as the Bible pictures it.
so we would separate into northern and Southern hemisphere.
the southern and northern plains
The Southern states formed The Confederate States of America and wanted to be a separate country. The Civil War prevented that.
no the prime meridian separates the eastern and western hemisphere and the equator separates the northern and southern hemisphere
No. They in separate kingdoms and separate domains.
According to the Bible, the source of the division between the Northern and Southern Kingdoms of Israel and Judah respectively comes from Solomon's successor Rehoboam failing to lift the tax burden on Israelites as well as his lead general Jeroboam's charisma in leading ten of the Israelite tribes to secede from Rehoboam's country and establish another dominion.Archaeologically, there is insufficient evidence at this point to say whether or not the Northern and Southern Israelite Kingdoms were ever united. (This is not to say that they were not or that they were, but that we do not have enough evidence to be sure either way.)They remained politically divided as there was never an attempt by either state to conquer the other state. They were far more useful to one another as allies against other secondary powers like Aram, Moab, and Phoenicia as well as against the larger powers like Assyria (which eventually destroyed the Northern Kingdom of Israel), Egypt, and Babylonia (which eventually destroyed the Southern Kingdom of Judah).
The division of Israel into the northern and southern kingdoms was primarily due to political and religious tensions. After the reign of King Solomon, the kingdom split into two because of conflicts over power and worship practices. Jeroboam led the northern kingdom of Israel, while Rehoboam became king of the southern kingdom of Judah.

North Carolina is located in the Northern Hemisphere and the Western Hemisphere (depending on which way you separate the Earth).
500 years circa.
Nowadays, Israel is not divided into two kingdoms, but thousands of years ago, Israel was split into two kingdoms called "Yehuda" and "Israel". Both kingdoms were Jewish and both had their own ledership, but only one kingdom, "Yehuda", was oficially ruling the land of Israel and Jerusalem
