The telephone was inspired by the desire to communicate over long distance. Previously the use of semaphore (signaling with visual means) or Morse Code was used. This required both the sender and the receiver to know the code used for transmission. The telephone enable everybody to be able to communicate with the device. Provided that both were speaking the same language.
