Tower of Babel, Remember Sunday School? In The Bible, it says that people decided to build a huge tower, called the Tower of Babylon. God decided to mess up the languages, because, as He said, together people can do anything they set their mind to. So He messed up the languages and they gave up on building the Tower and went and lived with other people who spoke the same language.

If you don't believe the Bible, you can make up your own story, if you want.
