About Nimrod in the Bible?

Nimrod and the people built the tower for self-glorification. The tower was in opposition to God. God had told the people to ter and replenish the earth. They did not want to obey this, so they united to build the tower. God knew they were trying to overstep their power. In order to stop this, He put up a barrier by confounding their language. They stopped building the tower and the people began moving away. They couldn't even understand each other to finish building the tower.
