According to the 11th chapter of the Bible Genesis , there was a time when there was no language communication barrier between human beings, so they joined together to build the tower of hope that the tower of Heaven could preach later generations. In order to prevent human's plan, God lets the human speak different language, causes the human to be unable to communicate with each other, the plan therefore fails, the human has scattered the thing from here. The building that led to the disaster was called "The Tower of the Babel", and the days when people used to speak the language became the legendary "Age of the World".
Today, technology can help people break the boundaries of geography and language and hopefully rebuild the tower.
