Update multiple records using DML

I have Object 1 and Object 2. I have a field on Object 1 that looks at Object 2 and pulls that value from Object based on another field in Object 1. 

When someone updates the field on Object 2, I need it to update ALL records on Object 1. I'm trying to write a trigger to do this, but I keep running into TOO MANY STATEMENTS error. PLEASE HELP!
  
trigger UpdatedTerritoryByState on Territory_By_State__c (after update) {
    
    String tbsState;
    String tbsTerritory;
	String updatedTerritory;
    String facID;

	//Setting the Territory By State vars    
    for(Territory_By_State__c tbs : Trigger.new) {
        tbsState = tbs.State__c;
        tbsTerritory = tbs.Territory__c;
    }
    
    
    List<Facility__c> facilityToUpdate = new list<Facility__c>();
    List<Facility__c> updateFacility = [SELECT Facility__c.id, Facility__c.physical_state__c FROM Facility__c WHERE Facility__c.physical_State__c = :tbsState];
    for(Facility__c fac : updateFacility) {
        Facility__c f = new Facility__c();
        f.Id = fac.Id;
        f.Territory__c = tbsTerritory;
        facilityToUpdate.add(f);
    }
    
    update facilityToUpdate;
    

}

Hi Brandon,

Try the following code it may be helpful for you: 
trigger UpdatedTerritoryByState on Territory_By_State__c (after update) {
    
    String tbsState;
    String tbsTerritory;
    
    for(Territory_By_State__c tbs : Trigger.new) {
        if(tbs.State__c!=null){
        tbsState = tbs.State__c;
        }
        if(tbs.Territory__c!=null){
        tbsTerritory = tbs.Territory__c;
        }
    }
    
    List<Facility__c> updateFacility =new List<Facility__c>();
    updateFacility=[SELECT Id, Physical_state__c FROM Facility__c WHERE Physical_State__c = :tbsState];
    if(updateFacility.size()>0){
    for(Facility__c fac : updateFacility) {
        fac.Territory__c = tbsTerritory;
    }
    }
    if(tbsTerritory!=null && updateFacility.size()>0){
    update updateFacility;
    }
}

I hope you find the above solution helpful. If it does, please mark as Best Answer to help others too.

Thanks and Regards,

    List<Facility__c> updateFacility =new List<Facility__c>();
    updateFacility=[SELECT Id, Physical_state__c FROM Facility__c WHERE Physical_State__c = :tbsState LIMIT 10000];
    if(updateFacility.size()>0)
    {
    for(Facility__c fac : updateFacility) 
    {
        fac.Territory__c = tbsTerritory;
