When internet was founded, the application field was "military", which began in the United States in 1969, also known as the Internet; its predecessor was a military network developed by the Defense Advanced Research projects Agency (ARPA), called ARPAnet (Arpanet). Arpanet is the earliest prototype of Internet.

Internet is a collection of global information resources. There is a rough saying that INTERNET is a logical network formed by the interconnection of many small networks (subnets), and several computers (hosts) are connected in each subnet. For the purpose of exchanging information resources, Internet is based on some common protocols and is formed through many routers and the public Internet. It is a collection of information resources and resource sharing.

Internet can be said to be the product of the cold war between the United States and the Soviet Union. The US Department of Defense has designed a decentralized command system to ensure that the US homeland defense forces: it is made up of scattered command points, and when some command points are destroyed, others can still work properly. To test this idea, in 1969, the Defense Advanced Research projects Agency (DoD/DARPA) of the U.S. Department of Defense funded the establishment of a network called ARPANET, which was connected to each other through a dedicated communication exchange (IMP) and dedicated communication lines. Arpanet is the earliest prototype of Internet.
