"Now it was Nimrod who excited them to such an affront and contempt of God. He was the grandson of Ham, the son of Noah, a bold man, and of great strength of hand. He persuaded them not to ascribe it to God, as if it was through his means they were happy, but to believe that it was their own courage which procured that happiness. He also gradually changed the government into tyranny, seeing no other way of turning men from the fear of God, but to bring them into a constant dependence on his power. He also said he would be revenged on God, if he should have a mind to drown the world again; for that he would build a tower too high for the waters to be able to reach! and that he would avenge himself on God for destroying their forefathers!"

Egypt CONQUERED Canaan in 1550.
They enslaved them. Because Pharoahs are d*cks.
The city of Babylon was located about 50 miles south of Baghdad along the Euphrates River in present-day Iraq. It was founded around 2300 B.C. by the ancient Akkadian-speaking people of southern Mesopotamia
Marduk is said to be the founder of Babylon, which would relate him as Nimrod, who founded Babel around 2300 BC.
I think I just enjoying arguing with creationists. So here we go again!

I disagree.
So does concensus.

List of Pharaohs of Egypt
Narmer the 1st Pharaoh was 3150 BC - 700 years before the alleged flood of2400bc.
Also how did Nimrod found Erech (believed to be Uruk) when that was founded in 5000 BCE?
What is the empirical evidence that shows the first pharaoh was in 3150BC?
The Narmer Palette, also known as the Great Hierakonpolis Palette or the Palette of Narmer, is a significant Egyptian archaeological find, dating from about the 31st century BC, belonging, at least nominally, to the category of cosmetic palettes. It contains some of the earliest hieroglyphic inscriptions ever found. The tablet is thought by some to depict the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt under the king Narmer. Along with the Scorpion Macehead and the Narmer Maceheads, also found together in the main deposit at Nekhen, the Narmer Palette provides one of the earliest known depictions of an Egyptian king. On one side, the king is depicted with the bulbed White Crown of Upper (southern) Egypt, and the other side depicts the king wearing the level Red Crown of Lower (northern) Egypt, which also makes it the earliest known example of a king wearing both types of headdress.[1] The Palette shows many of the classic conventions of Ancient Egyptian art, which must already have been formalized by the time of the Palette's creation.
The site is perhaps best known as the home of the exquisite ceremonial Narmer Palette. Found buried in a cache of temple furniture, the palette had been commissioned by Narmer, the first king of Egypt's First Dynasty, who reigned at about 3100 B.C. The palette--so-called the first political document in history--shows Narmer subduing an enemy ruler.
Based on this palette and other important objects found in this cache, Hierakonpolis has long been considered King Narmer's capital in Upper Egypt from which he conquered Lower Egypt. Our research reveals that Hierakonpolis was the capital of Upper Egypt for at least 500 years before Narmer's birth.
At about 3500 B.C., Hierakonpolis--a vibrant, bustling city stretching for over three miles along the Nile floodplain--was one of the largest urban centers along the river, a city of many neighborhoods and quarters inhabited by rich and poor, commoners and kings.

You realize THE PYRAMIDS ARE ALL OLDER THAN hypothetical Nimrod, right? The Giza ones were all built by 2510 BCE.

But I'm sure you can interpret and date that much better than egyptologists.

SO you ignore actual science
For your little story to work out you have to prove Noahs Flood happened in 2400bc.
What's the evidence or primary document that says the pyramid is from that timeframe? If the Egyptians give a clear date regarding the pyramid's construction then I am open to it. But they don't, I checked thoroughly.

For your Noahs Ark part of this story of yours to be true .. Noahs offspring would have had to have sailed to the other side of the planet, suddenly all turned into short little black people, suddenly started speaking aboriginal, suddenly started worshipping aboriginal gods, suddenly adapt the aboriginal culture.

So Carbons Half-Life is about 5700 years. Good up to about 40k. At 4600 years old its accurate to within a decade. And when multiple tests in a single pyramid all return the same age, you can accurately date a temples construction date.
Unless of course you deny isotope half-life or multiple verified samples at a single site returning like results.
post the study with the carbon dating results I'd like to look at them. If it was 2600BC, then this means the Nephilim and the pre-flood people could have built the pyramids. This could explain why the great pyramids don't have hieroglyphics, and the water erosion found on the pyramids.
During the “Green Sahara” period (11,000 to 5000 years before the present), the Sahara desert received high amounts of rainfall, supporting diverse vegetation, permanent lakes, and human populations.

Egypt was a lot wetter at one point. But that's explained by axial precession (earth's wobble) and the monsoons shift south started around 4000 BCE and disappearing within 1000 years.
During the “Green Sahara” period (11,000 to 5000 years before the present), the Sahara desert received high amounts of rainfall, supporting diverse vegetation, permanent lakes, and human populations.
So it rained consistently in the Sahara until 3000 BCE, with rains hanging around until about 2500.
Apparently pyramids couldn't bring back the rain...
That's my speculation, but the major pyramid building surge coincided with the end of The Green Sahara.
Nephilim?
So the watchers copulated with mortals and their offspring built the pyramids. Khufu was Nephilim? I know he probably thought he was descended from Ra, but his Father Sneferu too? But how can a Nephilim have a father... unless... Sneferu was an angel!
There's not good evidence to show Khufu constructed the pyramid. No Egyptian record of him constructing the great pyramids.
The evidence includes inscriptions found within the pyramid complex, as well as the discovery of Khufu's name inscribed on blocks within the pyramid. Additionally, archaeological findings and dating techniques support the attribution of the Great Pyramid to Khufu's reign.
I dabbled with the idea of it being a pre-flood construct, especially given that there are no hieroglyphics in the best-preserved pyramids.
The inscriptions, correctly deciphered only decades after discovery, read as follows:[14]
"The gang, The Horus Mededuw-is-the-purifier-of-the-two-lands". Found once in relieving chamber 3. (Mededuw being Khufu's Horus name.)
"The gang, The Horus Mededuw-is-pure" Found seven times in chamber 4.
"The gang, Khufu-excites-love" Found once in chamber 5 (top chamber).
"The gang, The-white-crown-of Khnumkhuwfuw-is-powerful" Found once in chambers 2 and 3, ten times in chamber 4 and twice in chamber 5. (Khnum-Khufu being Khufu's full birth name.)
