Though some modern scholars place "Sheba" in Ethiopia or Yemen, the truth is, we're not sure WHERE Sheba was. It's only mentioned in connection with the Queen of Sheba herself and archaeologists have never found any physical clues to conclusively prove modern hypotheses (which are based, mainly, on the Biblical description).

Sheba is the historical kingdom mentioned in the Old Testament and the Qur'an. The exact geographical location is disputed between Yemen and Ethiopia, but most agree it is located in Yemen. The Queen of Sheba is therefore from this kingdom.

The kingdom of Sheba encompassed the greater part of Yemen.
It bordered the Red Sea and was one of he most fertile disricts of Arabia.
The kingdom was founded by the Joktanites, after a son of Eber named Joktan and was for many centuries called the kingdom of Sheba. It was founded sometime after 2000 BC

"The Queen of Sheba, referred to in the Bible books of 1 Kings and 2 Chronicles, the Qur'an, and Ethiopian history, was the ruler of Sheba, an ancient kingdom which modern archeology speculates was located in present-day Ethiopia or Yemen"
