In this age, paper had been an inseparable part of our life. We need paper every day in the form of anything like book, copy or newspaper. Let’s talk about the development of paper.
Paper had been named ‘paper’ from the Greek word called ‘papyrus’. It is the name of a long grass found in Greece. This grass is couple of meters long. By this type of grass, papers were made by the ancient people of Greece. So paper was first prepared in Greece. But those papers were very different from the paper of today. The paper we are using now-a-days was discovered by Chinese. They firstly prepared paper by the small pieces of bamboo and tree. Further the Arabian kidnapped the people of China who could make paper. And the Arabians forced them to make paper in Arabia. In 9th century, the Arabians too started to make paper. Then it spread to whole European countries in 12th century.
With the purpose of business, the paper was first discovered in Italy (Fabriyano) in the year 1726. So, the most paper is manufactured in Finland with the purpose of business. After the establishment of press in 1450, the manufacture of paper is rapidly growing.
