Moses did not found Judea. According to historical and biblical accounts, the ancient kingdom of Judea was founded by Saul, the first king of Israel, in the 11th century BCE. Judea was a region in the southern part of Israel that included Jerusalem as its capital. Moses, on the other hand, is believed to have lived much earlier than Saul, around the 13th century BCE, and is known for leading the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt and receiving the Ten Commandments from God on Mount Sinai.

Moses did not found Judea.

Judea was a region in the ancient Near East, located in the southern part of the area known as Palestine, and was later a Roman province.

Judea was founded by the Israelite tribe of Judah, which established its capital in Jerusalem around 1000 BCE. The region was later conquered by various empires, including the Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, and Romans, and played an important role in Jewish history and religion.
