How did God mean when He said that Jacob (Israel) would become "a nation, and a company of nations"? I thought the nation of Israel was only ONE nation?

Gen 35:10-11
10 And God said unto him, "Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name": and He called his name Israel.

11 And God said unto him, "I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply;
a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins;"
KJV
