Answer:

Telegraph machine

Step-by-step explanation:

However, communication between people living in separate cities or states was possible thanks in part to the telegraph machine. The telegraph machine worked by sending a coded message on a wire from one point to another. The most commonly used code was Morse code, which gets its name from inventor Samuel Morse.

During the 19th century, communication fundamentally changed from what was available at America's founding. From a society that communicated through voice, art, and the written word (letters, newspapers, and books), the country added a federal postal service, telegraphs, photographs, and telephones.
