Best Answer

People speak different languages world-wide. It is a form of identity and part of cultures. They've developed from outside influences over thousands of years. A good example is the English language, which has been influenced by Anglos, Saxons, Vikings, Innuits, etc.

If you mean, perhaps, why there is one Chinese langauge (Mandarin, etc.) I'm not sure but I think it might be similar to a dialect.
