What is one important change that took place while God's people were exiled in Babylon?
The false prophets, at long last, were silenced forever. They had predicted that Judah would remain independent of Babylonia (Jeremiah ch.27) and no Destruction would take place.Also, the lure of idolatry finally weakened, since the Destruction and Exile happened exactly as predicted by the true Prophets, who were the same ones who had spoken ceaselessly against dabbling in idolatry.See also the Related Link.Link: Did Judaism change?
What is the reason the Jews were taken as prisoners of war to Babylon?
1) The general spiritual reason was that God found the people of Judah to be below the spiritual level that was a requisite for remaining in their land. The prophets had warned them (Jeremiah 7:25) but were not sufficiently heeded (2 Chronicles 36:16). Once God's presence no longer felt welcome in the Holy Temple, its destruction and the exile were just a matter of time (Talmud, Rosh Hashanah 31a, and midrash Eichah Rabbah 1:43).A more specific spiritual reason was the egregious sins of Menasheh, king of Judah (2 Kings 21:11-13 and 24:3).2) The temporal circumstance was the fact that King Yehoiakim, after having been obedient to Nevuchadnezzar (king of Babylonia), became insubordinate (2 Kings 24:1); and Nevuchadnezzar responded by conquering the land of Judah, destroying the First Temple and exiling the populace.Some positive results: the false prophets, at long last, were silenced forever. They had predicted that Judah would remain independent of Babylonia (Jeremiah ch.27) and no Destruction would take place.Also, the lure of idolatry finally weakened, since the Destruction and Exile happened exactly as predicted by the true Prophets, who were the same ones who had spoken ceaselessly against dabbling in idolatry.
When Nebuchadnezzar exiled the Jews to Babylon what was the name of that period in Jewish history?
The Babylonian Exile (or Galut Bavel in Hebrew).Other information 1) The general spiritual reason for the Babylonian Exile was that God had found the people of Judah to be below the spiritual level that was a requisite for having His presence remain among them. The prophets had warned them (Jeremiah 7:25) but were not sufficiently heeded (2 Chronicles 36:16). Once God's presence no longer felt welcome in the Holy Temple, its destruction was just a matter of time (Talmud, Rosh Hashanah 31a, and midrash Eichah Rabbah 1:43).A more specific spiritual reason was the egregious sins of Menasheh, king of Judah (2 Kings 21:11-13 and 24:3).2) The temporal circumstance was the fact that King Yehoiakim, after having been obedient to Nevuchadnezzar (king of Babylonia), became insubordinate (2 Kings 24:1); and Nevuchadnezzar responded by conquering the land of Judah, destroying the First Temple and exiling the populace.Some positive results: the false prophets, at long last, were silenced forever.

Why did the Babylonians take over Canaan and what did they force the Israelites to do?
The Babylonians conquered the nations of the Palestinian region as part of a territorial expansion after their defeat of the Assyrian Empire. They never conquered Israel, because the kingdom had ceased to exist more than a century earlier, following the Assyrian conquest. The successor province to Israel was called Samaria, and the people (now of mixed race) were called Samarians or Samaritans. We have very little information about the interaction of the Babylonians with the Samaritans, but it was probably fairly benign because they simply exchanged one overlord for another. Similarly, the Canaanites, who occupied the coastal strip centred on the city of Dor, would have seen little change from rule by the Assyrians.The Judahite people were beginning to adopt the ethnic name 'Israelite' at about the time of the Babylonian conquest, possibly to justify claims on the much larger and more prosperous northern territory, but there is little evidence that this name was used by other nations for the people of Judah until some centuries later. The leading citizens of Jerusalem, capital of Judah, were forced into exile, although much of the rural population and some residents of Jerusalem were allowed to remain behind. It was only the Persian defeat of Babylon that eventually resulted in the exiled Jews being allowed to return to their homeland in Judah.
What group caused the fall of israel and scattered the tribes of israel?
Since the question doesn't specify, we'll discuss the exile of the Ten Tribes of Israel, the destruction of the First Temple, and the destruction of the Second Temple. In each case, we'll give 1) a spiritual reason, and 2) a political ("current events-type") reason. The Ten Tribes (some 2650 years ago):1) The spiritual reason was that for over two centuries the Ten Tribes had cut themselves off from the more-righteous tribe of Judah and the Temple, and had been much more lax about the prohibition against idolatry. The prophets, such as Hosea, had warned them but were not sufficiently heeded.2) The temporal reason was that Assyria conquered them and exiled them.The First Destruction (some 2500 years ago):1) The general spiritual reason was that God found the people of Judah to be below the spiritual level that was a requisite for having His presence among them. The prophets had warned them (Jeremiah 7:25) but were not sufficiently heeded (2 Chronicles 36:16). Once God's presence no longer felt welcome in the Holy Temple, its destruction was just a matter of time (see Talmud, Rosh Hashanah 31a, and midrash Eichah Rabbah 1:43).A more specific spiritual reason was the egregious sins of Menasheh, king of Judah, as stated in 2 Kings 21:11-13 and 24:3.2) The political reason (the specific temporal circumstance) was the fact that King Yehoiakim, after having been obedient to Nevuchadnezzar (king of Babylonia), became insubordinate (2 Kings 24:1); and Nevuchadnezzar responded by conquering the land of Judah, destroying the First Temple and exiling the populace.Some positive results: the false prophets, at long last, were silenced forever. They had predicted that no Destruction would take place.Also, the lure of idolatry finally weakened, since the Destruction and Exile happened exactly as predicted by the true Prophets, who were the same ones who had spoken ceaselessly against dabbling in idolatry.The Second Destruction (in 68 CE):1) The spiritual reason was that the Jewish people were plagued by an internal enemy, the Sadducees, who had been dragging the spiritual level of the people downwards for many decades. These were men of power who (along the lines of the earlier Hellenizers) were less interested in Torah than in pleasure, politics, and obsequiousness to the Herodian kings and the Romans. Even the once-pious Hasmoneans had eventually become infiltrated by the Sadducees. They'd fomented unnecessary wars, sown discord among the Jewish people (see Talmud, Yoma 9b), and had even killed a number of the leading Torah-sages (Talmud, Kidushin 66a). The Second Destruction, as painful and tragic as it was, at least accomplished the disappearance of the impious cliques (as alluded in the parable in the Talmud, Gittin 56b, in which the "barrel of honey" represents Jerusalem and the Temple, and the "דרקון" [serpent] hints to the Sadducees, among others). Once Jerusalem and the Temple were razed, the men of power melted away and the internal life of the Jewish communities returned to the aegis of the Torah-sages. Other non-traditional groups including the Samaritans and the Essenes also now dissociated themselves from the Jewish people.2) The political trigger to the Second Destruction was the anti-Roman revolt fomented by the Zealots, who acted against the advice of the Rabbis and left the Romans no choice but to crush the people (Talmud, Gittin 56).
