Why did God only send prophets to Israel?

They say: "Why did God only send prophets to Israel? Millions died without knowing God's ways."
Abraham learned of God through Shem, (yes Shem was alive when Abraham was in his 30's) and followed God's ways.
What about Ham and Japheth? They saw the world before and after the Flood. They too knew who the Creator was and of his power.
Japheth's descendants were the most enlarged in numbers and in real estate. The Chinese (Japhetites) worshiped Shang-Di they called the creator God. Their ancient writing characters, literally depict Genesis.
Ham? I have very little knowledge about Africa's (the region his descendants migrated to) traditions and worship. If Canaan and his descendants give us a glimpse of their traditions...
Truth is, even without the influence of the sons of God, Israelites were still rebellious, and erred towards strange worship and strange gods.
Granted, the Lord's portion had an advange. Yet, we can see that the Chinese (probably the same for the surrounding nations), worshipped ShangDi until the 6th century BC.
The same goes for the descendants of Gomer a son of Japheth, they are up to this day part of those we call Jewish. Even though they hail from North West Europe, they kept their beliefs for a long time, but then somehow upgraded to the Babylonian/Talmudic influence.

(ESV) Deuteronomy 32:5 They have dealt corruptly with him; they are no longer his children because they are blemished; they are a crooked and twisted generation.
6 Do you thus repay the LORD, you foolish and senseless people? Is not he your father, who created you, who made you and established you?
7 Remember the days of old; consider the years of many generations; ask your father, and he will show you, your elders, and they will tell you.
8 When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when he divided mankind, he fixed the borders of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God.
9 But the LORD’s portion is his people, Jacob his allotted heritage.

After Babel, God divided the nations and sent them away in different directions, under the supervision of the 'sons of God' (principalities), but kept to himself the lineage of Arphaxad son of Shem.
Shem; Arphaxad; ..; Peleg; ..; Terah; Abraham; Isaac; Jacob (renamed Israel).
But most of the world did not have the Torah (God's law given to Moses). Israelites were to be a nation of priests. A holy nation meant to guide the world towards God's Ways, and that's why they were given the Torah. Over centuries, they failed and failed again to be the Holy nation to be an example to the world. That is why God made a New Covenant with the World, through his Son Christ Jesus.
