Prior to the establishment of the UPU, each country had to prepare a separate postal treaty with other nations it wished to carry international mail to or from.To simplify the complexity of this system, the United States called for an International Postal Congress in 1863. The UPU was created in 1874, initially under the name "General Postal Union", as a result of the Treaty of Bern signed on October 9, 1874. Four years later, the name was changed to "Universal Postal Union."The UPU established that:1.There should be a uniform flat rate to mail a letter anywhere in the world2.Postal authorities should give equal treatment to foreign and domestic mail3.Each country should retain all money it has collected for international postage.
