GPO (General Post Office)

The General Post Office (GPO) refers to a national postal service office responsible for mail delivery and related services within a country. Historically, it served as the central hub for handling postal communications, managing mail distribution, and offering services like money orders and postal savings. Many countries have a GPO that ensures effective communication through the postal system. In various regions, the term may also refer to specific large post office buildings or facilities that serve as the main point for postal operations. The GPO played a crucial role in connecting people before the advent of digital communication.
