It is with my gratitude to the Holy Spirit, who inspired this project.  These results are a work in progress and I encourage everyone to make their own determinations.  In order to discover nations represented by the 10 older brothers of Joseph, an extensive Scriptural study of each individual brother in Genesis, Testimony of 12 Sons, and Book of Jubilees supplied attributes and interactions that lead to placement. 

To assemble regional matches with events that parallel family member engagement, alternative media sources were useful for an in-depth look into second millennium historical events from various viewpoints. From the perspective of Joseph, these occurred in the latter half of this era. The project designation comes through a father of his sons. This information presents the nations as a family all under the HOLY GREAT ONE, whom shows HIS power in marvelous ways.

"Declaring the end from the beginning, And from ancient times things not yet done, Saying, 'My purpose will be established, accomplishing all My good pleasure'". ~Isaiah 46:10

(*As always  - I welcome ALL suggestions and questions. The ultimate goal is to qualify each nation with 'keys', as they do for the USA. See note after article.*)

~ 4 Quadrants ~

_________________________

The nations order is  based, in part, on which of the 4 mothers gave birth as it seems likely each mother represents the 4 quadrants of the planet. The upper half to Leah & Rachel and Lower half to the handmaids beneath their mistresses. In this way, we can determine the quadrant by who gives birth. One exception is a son of Rachel's handmaid. In the testament of Naphtali, it says he was born on Rachel's lap. Another is Benjamin, the youngest. Rachel died as she gave birth to Ben. So, Leah mothered the child.

The following table was useful for the mother’s delivery order and meaning of names:

Sons of Jacob	Meaning of Name	Mother	Birth Verse
01-Reuben	See, a son	Leah	So Leah conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Reuben; for she said, "The LORD has surely seen my affliction. Now therefore, my husband will love me." Gen 29.32
02-Simeon	Hearing	Leah	Then she conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Because the LORD has heard that I am unloved, He has therefore given me this son also." And she called his name Simeon. Gen 29.33
03-Levi	Joined; attached	Leah	She conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Now this time my husband will become attached to me, because I have borne him three sons." Therefore his name was called Levi. Gen 29.34
04-Judah	Yah be praised	Leah	And she conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Now I will praise Yahweh." Therefore she called his name Judah. Then she stopped bearing. Gen 29.35
05-Dan	Judge	Bilhah (Rachel's servant)	Then Rachel said, "God has judged my case; and He has also heard my voice and given me a son." Therefore she called his name Dan. Gen 30.6
06-Naphtali	My wrestling	Bilhah (Rachel's servant)	Rachel said, "With great wrestlings I have wrestled with my sister, and indeed I have prevailed." So she called him Naphtali. Gen 30.6
07-Gad	Troop; invader; good fortune	Zilpah (Leah's servant)	Then Leah said, "A troop comes!" So she called his name Gad. Gen 30.11

09-Issachar	Man of hire	Leah	Leah said, "God has given me my hire [wages] because I have given my maid to my husband." So she called his name Issachar. Gen 30.18
