The history of the internet began with research into information theory and efforts by scientists and engineers to connect computer networks. Researchers in the United States collaborated internationally, especially with those in the United Kingdom and France, to develop the Internet Protocol Suite which allows communication between networks and devices on the internet. The internet originated as interconnected computers and infrastructure that uses standard protocols to allow fully distributed global connectivity between any networked devices.

The history of the Internet has its origin in information
theory and the efforts of scientists and engineers to build and interconnect computer networks. The Internet Protocol Suite, the set of rules used to communicate between networks and devices on the Internet, arose from research and development in the United States and involved international collaboration, particularly with researchers in the United Kingdom and France.
The Internet is actually a wire. Well, many wires that
connect computers all around the world.
The Internet is also infrastructure. It's a global network of
interconnected computers that communicate through a standardised way with set protocols. Really, it's a network of networks. It's a fully distributed system of computing devices and it ensures end to end connectivity through every part of the network. The aim is for every device to be able to communicate with any other device.
It has also created so many opportunities and has helped
helped humanity progress and has shaped our human experience.
There is nothing else like it – it's one of the greatest
inventions of all time. But do we ever stop to think why it was created in the first place, how it all happened, or by whom it was created? How the internet has become what it is today?
This article is more of a journey back in time. We'll learn
about the origins of the Internet and how far it has come throughout the years, as this can be beneficial in our coding journeys.
