They came about when God scattered mankind across the face of the world after He confused the languages of men at the tower of Babel.
Genesis 11:5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of man had built. 6 And the LORD said, "Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them. 7 Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand one another's speech." 8 So the LORD dispersed them from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city.

Genesis 11 tells the story of language but also translates to the different nations.

read Genesis again and God created the races on the 6th day and he made them male and female and it was good, and then he rested on the 7th day, now on the 8th day he realized he had no one to work the ground all the others were hunters and fisherman, so he created Adam and eve, Now the reason they say Eve is mother of all living, is because Christ and the chosen people the Jews would come out of Adams line! And salvation would come through the Jews in the NAME OF JESUS! So all who believe in Jesus will live for all eternity, that's why she is called the mother of all living, eternal life. forever

You know this exact question has been asked at least 4 times this week. Did you take a look at any of the answers already posted? Why do they even keep them available?

Genesis 1
26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, [b] and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.
Ephesians 4
25Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his neighbor, for we are all members of one body. 26"In your anger do not sin"[d]: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, 27and do not give the devil a foothold. 28He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with his own hands, that he may have something to share with those in need.
29Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. 30And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. 32Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
