Final answer:

The correct answer is that the kingdom was divided by the 12 Hebrew tribes after Solomon's death, which led to subsequent conquests by the Assyrians and Babylonians over time.

Step-by-step explanation:

After King Solomon died, the kingdom was divided by the 12 Hebrew tribes into two kingdoms: Israel in the north and Judah in the south. This split is known as the period of the divided monarchy. The northern kingdom, Israel, was later conquered by the Assyrians in 722 BCE, a catastrophic event leading to the 'lost tribes' of Israel. Judah, as it persisted, eventually faced its own downfall when it was conquered by the Babylonians in 586 BCE after a series of rebellions, leading to the Babylonian captivity. So, while all the events listed did occur after Solomon's death, they did not occur immediately afterwards but rather unfolded over a period of time.
