Herod's son was so bad at his job that even Rome said 'nah bro you're done'
Archelaus gets ethnarch of Judea after daddy Herod dies, but he's so brutal that both Jews AND Samaritans — who literally agree on nothing — team up to complain to Augustus. Rome fires him in 6 CE and sends him to exile in Gaul, replacing him with Roman prefects. This is why Joseph avoids Judea and settles in Nazareth instead, which is a decision that hits different when you realize it shapes where Jesus grows up.
