Not sure Lot is to blame here. His daughters had to get him blind drunk, and they had no reason to believe there were not the last three people on earth.
The offspring from that incident were two males named, Moab and Ammon - the two tribes that became mortal enemies of Israel, the Ammonites and the Moabites. The nation of Jordan is where the Ammonites lived and its capital is named after Ammon.

In Messianic days, the territory of Ammon, Moab, and Edom will be added to the Land of Israel.
And yet, the daughter who gave birth to Moab somehow had the merit to be an ancestor of King David via Ruth.
