BUt consider this:

Why can't they be the daughters of the single kingdom ISRAEL before they split?

But here's a thought....
(I posted this elsewhere this morning on the forum)

Some claim Jerusalem is the whore as well as Rome in Revelation, and somehow became one.

Jerusalem is clearly the city that is called Sodom and Egypt. And Rome is said to be Babylon.

Bit think of the common denominator in Sodom, Egypt and Babylon. God's People had to LEAVE ALL THREE. If this is Jerusalem who is all three, then the picture shows God's people BECOMING THAT FROM WHICH THEY ONCE HAD TO FLEE! And is that not exactly the picture?

1 Peter 5:13 has the Apostle Peter sending greetings from his location. Which was Jerusalem. Peter calls the Church there the church in Babylon. Peter was NEVER in Rome. We have not one shred of evidence for Peter being in Rome. Who is buried in the Basilica? They also have John the Baptists head in two different places, one is his head when he was older, and the other when he was younger.
