How do telegrams work?

Telegrams these days are different than telegrams "in the old days".

You can still send telegrams all over the world, in a couple of hours if necessary. The big difference's is the way telegrams are send over the world.

In earlier days telegrams where send by the telegraph-lines with Morse codes. At the other side of the line these codes where translated to Words again and brought by messenger to the receiver.

Today we don't use Morse codes anymore, but telegrams are still very important.

You can use telegrams to congratulate someone, to send your deepest sympathy or wish someone much luck. Any occasion you can think of, a telegram will bring the message!
