Is Judah in Israel?
The former kingdom of Judah is now part of modern Israel and partly in the Palestinian Territory. Judah was a small inland enclave surrounding the city of Jerusalem and quite separate from the kingdom of Israel to its north. Biblical tradition holds that in former times, Judah and Israel had formed a United Monarchy, also known as Israel, but noted archaeologists such as Israel Finkelstein say that this was never the case. Judah and Israel were always separate and had their own separate culture, pottery styles and even their own separate dialects of the Hebrew language.
What tribe did King Josiah come from in the King James Bible?

Who ruled the kingdom of Israel in the time of Jesus?
The Kingdom of Israel was finally destroyed by the Assyrians in 722 BCE and many of the people who did not flee to Judah or Egypt deported, never to return. So, in the time of Jesus, there was no Kingdom of Israel and there had not been for over seven centuries. The land of the Israelites had become Samaria, the land of the Samarians, or Samaritans. Judea and Samaria were under Roman rule.
Who was Judah?
Judah was the fourth son of Jacob (Israel) by Leah. He became the leader amongst the sons. The tribe of Judah is named after him, and many of the modern Jews are descended from him.
Why is Jesus king of Jews?
Christ never made the statement he was king of the jews, that statement was made by Pilot. You have to remember where Christ was crucified. He was crucified in Judaea, where the tribe of Judah was located (one of the 12 tribes of Israel). People from that area, were referred to as Jews. Romans were not studied in the scrolls of the Hebrews so they simply called everyone from that region Jews. Later that will cause great confusion as many that claim to be Jews because they are from Judaea are not of the tribe of Judah, nor the house of Israel. Those must be kept separate. Read John chapter 8, where Christ identifies sons of Cain who were claiming to be Jews. Romans call all people from Judaea "Jews" and when those of that area proclaimed Christ king, the Romans simply put 2 and 2 together and called him King of the Jews (In Mockery). The word Jew therefore is simply a loose term to indicate people who lived in Judaea, it in no way indicates all those called Jews are from the tribe of Judah, and John 8 bears this out. In the book of Luke, you will discover Christ's mother was of the tribe of Levi, of the house of Aaron (priest line of the tribes of Israel). In the book of Matthew you will discover that Mary's husband was from the tribe of Judah and of the house of David (David was the King line over all tribes of Israel), Therefore Christ obtained both titles King and High Priest over the tribes of Israel, and after his death as the sacrifice for our sins for one and all time, he earned those titles over all people. This is the very reason our forefathers would not concede to having Kings in the United States, in their understanding we already had a King over which no man could be greater and under which every man should humble himself ... Christ.
