Best Answer

For the purpose of this question, we must assume that all humans other than Noah, his three sons and their wives, were destroyed in the Flood. Noah's sons could not have ruled over non-existent people, so they could not have ruled over any nations. And there could not be enough people to form nations for centuries or even thousands of years to come.

AnswerGenesis chapters 10 & 11 give the details of ''the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth..." (Genesis 10:1).

These two chapters provide details of some of the physical descendants of the three sons of Noah, in terms of people who would later be indentified as being the significant leaders or rulers after whom these various nations became known by name, one example being Canaan after whom the Canaanites were named and also the Land of Canaan.

The Genesis record gives no suggestion that the immediate sons of Noah were rulers over nations, regardless of how many people were descended from them in their own lifetime. It is also likely that, even though the definition of what constitutes a nation may vary significantly, there were not sufficient people for some time for these sons of Noah to rule over.
