Back in 1831, the Table of Post Offices in the United States was created in order to help people send their mail to the right address and receive it if it wasn't delivered. People really enjoyed to use the 50 states abbreviations instead of writing the long names of the states, that is why the table of the 50 states abbreviations was useful. Publication 59 introduced the new 50 states abbreviations that became shorter. Only two of the overseas territories have their own abbreviations: Guam and Puerto Rico.
