During that time period everyone spoke the same language this is why it was easy, but the leader of these was a mighty hunter named Nimrod, and he was in complete opposition to Jehovah. So in Gen. 11:1-9 God confused their language and people were forced to scatter across the Earth.

Babel, derivative of Babylon
The people of the world attempted to defy God and tried to reach the heavens by building the Tower of Babel. It was viewed by God as a rebellion of humanity. God then mixed up their languages so they could no longer communicate with each other in a universal way, and in turn could not build the tower (or get together in defiance).
In the Bible, when the tower of Babel was built, the people wanted to build it to reach the sky. To keep this from happening, God caused all of the people to speak different languages so they would have nothing but confusion and could not understand what the other people were saying. Hence-the word babel or babble refers to confusion.
Actually, the tower of Babel was never completed. Men wanted to build the tower so they could reach heaven, but God made their languages scramble so they couldn't complete it.
