Alternate History: The Empire of Israel

"BEEP!"
This is based on a CK2 scenario I had.

In the year 1066 young 18-year-old Jewish Hebrew Girl from a seamlessly unknown family managed to revolt against her Islamic rulers and reestablished the Kingdom of Israel. She quickly goes about building the 3rd temple and reestablishing the priesthood. Within ten years she succeeds in driving Islam from Africa and manages to turn Israel into an empire that spans the entire continent of Africa with Jerusalem in the center as its capital.

How does Christianity and the rest of the world react to this new empire and its empress? Does Islam manage to stick around? How much does Christianity get affected by this? How much does Judaism get affected by this?

For this scenario let's say everyone within the empire converts to Judaism at least publicly.

Would be difficult for the Muslims since traditionally apostasy was viewed as warranting the death penalty.

Anyway, Medieval Christians might view this as a sign of the anti-Christ and thus perhaps spark the First Crusade three decades earlier than in real life.

Double impossible.Muslims would not fall to rebels without weapons and training,and even if,jews would not follow woman.
They was/and still are in orthodox case/ society ruled by men,not womens.
You must use some jewish Messiah for that.

An intersex Jewish Messiah? Or perhaps a trans Jewish Messiah who is physically male but begins identifying as a woman after kicking the Muslims out of Palestine? :D

FWIW, the Vietnamese united behind a couple of women to kick the Chinese out of their country 2,000 years ago:

trans jewish messiah...some jewish sects belived in szehida/kind of goddess/ so they could buy it,but orthodox jews? they would fight with muslim against such thing.
 
ATP said:
Yes,it would be that kind of reaction.And mob going after him would be mixed muslim-jewisch-christian.
He would unite all peope on Middle East...against him.

I like some of the comments that were made in that video. "Are you sure that God wasn't just a man in drag?" "Are you sure that God wasn't born with ambiguous genitals?" Et cetera. :D

Well,for some men it would be more accettable then being womans.And some jewish sect really belive in goddess Shechina - problem is,they were never popular.And other jews do not liked them to the point of getting violent.
And i am not sure,if that sect existed in that time - maybe it was create later.
