The United Kingdom

Saul (1051-1011)
David (1011-971)
Solomon (971-931)

The United Kingdom of Israel split after Solomon's death. The Northern Kingdom never served God. The first king, Jeroboam, established calf worship as the state religion. The Southern Kingdom served God off and on. All of the kings of the Southern Kingdom were descendants of King David. This was not the case with the kings of the Northern Kingdom.
