Editor's Notes
POSTAL SYSTEMS- The mail or post is a system for physically transporting documents and other small packages, as well as a term for the postcards, letters, and parcels themselves.
In Ancient Rome, Acta Diurna, or government announcement bulletins, were produced. They were carved in metal or stone and posted in public places.
In China, early government-produced news-sheets, called Dibao, circulated among court officials during the late Han dynasty
In Early modern Europe the increased cross-border interaction created a rising need for information which was met by concise handwritten news-sheets, called avvisi.
Espionage- practice of spying, typically by governments to obtain political and military information.
