Isaiah primarily preached in the southern kingdom of Judah.
Micah is called a minor prophet, not because he or his message was unimportant but because the book of Micah in the Old Testament is small. He prophesied before the fall of the Northern Kingdom of Israel. Micah is thought to have been written around 742 - 687 BC. Micah was a contemporary of Isaiah and Hosea

Isaiah was a prophet who lived in the Kingdom of Judah during the 8th century BCE. He prophesied during the reigns of several kings, including Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah.
In the book of Isaiah, Ephraim refers to the northern kingdom of Israel. It was one of the tribes of Israel and a powerful kingdom in ancient times. The prophet Isaiah frequently mentions Ephraim in reference to its rebellion against God and impending downfall.
Isaiah was a prophet who lived during the 8th-century B.C. in the Kingdom of Judah before it fell to the Babylonians. Isaiah is credited as the author of the book by the same name in the Bible and often quoted in the New Testament.
If you mean the Southern Kingdom, that would be Isaiah.
A:Isaiah, son of Amoz, wrote of things he saw during the reigns of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah of Judah. He therefore began his career around 740 BCE and could have continued for more than forty years thereafter. Israel still existed when Isaiah began to preach, being destroyed by the Assyrians in 722 BCE, but Isaiah was really only concerned with the kingdom of Judah and the social and political problems he foresaw in that kingdom. He preached to the Judahites, who later became known as the Jews.

Book of Isaiah was a composite work by authors now known as I Isaiah and II Isaiah, whose lives and experiences were separated by many decades. Isaiah 1:1 introduces the book as the work of Isaiah, son of Amoz, who lived in the reigns of the Judahite kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah. Because there were two authors of the book, this Isaiah is generally referred to as I Isaiah or First Isaiah. The northern kingdom of Israel had long since ceased to exist, with many of the Israelites either absorbed into the Assyrian kingdom or scattered as refugees to Judah and Egypt. Judah was still an autonomous kingdom, struggling to absorb a huge influx of refugees from the north, while undertaking far-reaching religious reforms. The Book of Isaiah omits the 150 year period from Hezekiah to the fall of Jerusalem and recommences with the Babylonian Exile. The anonymous author of this work is generally referred to as Second Isaiah. During the early part of this period, many Jews were effectively captives of Babylon, although some rural and provincial Jews did remain behind. After the defeat of Babylon by Cyrus of Persia in 539 BCE, the lot of the Jews improved, and they were even allowed to return to Judah. Meanwhile, the Idumeans had settled in what had been southern Judah - the inland region roughly south-west of the Dead Sea.
The Book of Isaiah was written by two, and possibly three, different authors separated in time by more than a century. Isaiah, son of Amoz, was the first author and is therefore now known as First Isaiah. He wrote most of Isaiah chapters 1-39 and was concerned with external threats to the Kingdom of Judah. He tried to warn of the risk of Assyria and advise the kings in dealing with it. He believed that the problems facing Judah were caused by God because of the moral backsliding of his fellow citizens. He tried to convey God's ability and desire to protect Judah. Second Isaiah wrote during the Babylonian Exile and Third Isaiah wrote during the immediate post-Exilic period.
