Here is the answer to yesterday’s question!

The answer is the Tower of Babel! It comes from a biblical story, where all the humans used to speak the same language and coordinated the building of the tower that could reach the heavens. However, it was believed that God did not want them to do so, which is why the people suddenly began speaking in different languages and could no longer communicate to complete the tower.
