The Bible never states exactly where the magi came from nor does it specify if the number of magi. The bible simples says they came from the west and that they came with three gifts. The two most common errors of the Christmas story is 1) that the Magi came from the east, when in actuality the bible says the star they followed was in the east which means they must have came from the west. 2) People always say there were three Magi when the bible only says there were three gifts and usually caravans were MUCH bigger then that, so that travelers could protect themselves from thieves and wild animals. Plus a caravan of three wouldn't have caught the kings attention. Matt 2: 1-16

That depends on WHICH three kings you're talking about.
