Why were Uranus and Neptune unknown?

Because they are so far from Earth, it is difficult to see them. Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Venus and Mercury are much easier to see and very noticeable when they are visible, so they have been seen for as long as mankind can remember. Uranus was not discovered until 1781. Neptune was discovered in 1846.
