The Internet is not so new it already had its beginnings in the 1960s, when computers in the United States Department of Defence agencies and agencies with defense research projects were linked by data lines, so that information could be transferred between the computers. These network was begun to expand when other links were created to other United States government agencies, research centers, and universities. The result of this was a national research network called ARPANET in 1969.
