In 722 BC, the Assyrians conquered the northern kingdom of Israel, leading to the fall of Samaria and the scattering of the ten tribes of Israel. This event marked the end of the northern kingdom, as the Assyrians deported many Israelites and resettled other peoples in the region, resulting in the so-called "Lost Ten Tribes." The Assyrian conquest significantly impacted the history and identity of the Israelite people.
