The ancient Jewish King, Solomon, ruled in what was the land known as Judea, located directly to the east of the Mediterranean Sea.

Jewish answer:

King Solomon ruled the land known as Israel, located directly to the east of the Mediterranean Sea. The name of the land is given in 1 Samuel 13:19.

From Israel, his dominion extended over the Philistines (1 Kings 5:1) and all the inhabitants of the Negev and Sinai wildernesses (ibid.), southern Lebanon (1 Kings 9:19), the western Syrian Desert (ibid. 5:4 and 9:18), and the remaining Canaanites (ibid. 9:20-21); and his influence extended much further.
