After a whole civil war arc, David finally united all twelve tribes under one crown — the grind was real 👑
Saul and Jonathan died in battle and David mourned them hard — even wrote a whole song about it. But then Judah made David king while Saul's son Ish-Bosheth ruled the other tribes, sparking a civil war. After years of conflict and some very messy assassinations, all the tribes finally came to David at Hebron and made him king over everyone. He immediately captured Jerusalem and made it his capital. The City of David era began.
