ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Postal Union of the Americas, Spain and Portugal

A long long time ago, people needed a way to send letters and packages to their friends and families who lived in faraway places. So they came up with something called the postal system. This is like a big club where people agree to send letters and packages to each other for a special fee.

One day, many countries in America, Spain and Portugal decided to join this club together. They called it the Postal Union of the Americas, Spain and Portugal. This made it easier and cheaper for people to send letters and packages to each other, even if they lived in different countries.

Before this, people had to pay a lot of money to send letters to people living in other countries. But with the Postal Union, they only had to pay a small fee. This made it possible for more people to stay in touch with their loved ones even if they lived very far away.

So in summary, the Postal Union of the Americas, Spain and Portugal is a club where countries agreed to work together to send letters and packages to each other. This made it easier and cheaper for people to stay in touch with their friends and families who lived in different countries.
