Before marriage travel, how was the travel?

None of us can travel without holding his passport in his right hand, but before the passport was issued, how the travel procedures were carried out, the first mention of a document similar to a contemporary passport dates back to the borders of the year 450 BC, when the Persian king Artaxerxes I allowed his minister and his assistant, Nehemiah, to leave the city of Suse to head towards Judea, in southern Palestine.
The Persian king granted his assistant a letter in which he asked the rulers of the regions on the other side of the Euphrates to facilitate the movement of Nehemiah, according to what was mentioned in the Book of Nehemiah, which is classified as one of the books of the Jewish Tanakh.

Based on a number of ancient documents, mention of the word passport dates back to the medieval period. During that period, and to cross the gates of the cities, strangers needed a permit from the local authorities to enter and roam freely, even in the coastal cities, where they were requested when entering their ports.

Most of the historical sources consider King Henry V of England to be the first to adopt a document similar to a contemporary passport. The King of England, after a Parliamentary Decree issued in 1414, sought the title of Safe Conducts Act 1414 to protect his subjects during their travels on foreign lands by means of Provide a document proving their identity and origin.
Meanwhile, this decree was suspended for 7 years, starting in the year 1435, before it was adopted again within the year 1442.
With the advent of the year 1540 and based on a new decision, the task of issuing travel documents became one of the tasks of the English Special Council, and concurrently with that, the word “passport” became known as the beginning of its spread.

In 1794, foreign officials were given the task of issuing passports.

The date of the oldest British passport is the year 1636, when the King of England Charles I (Charles I) during that year allowed Sir Thomas Littleton to travel towards the overseas lands, which are the "English colonies on the American continent during that period".
However, in conjunction with the spread of railways, and their extension over long distances between different countries between the second half of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century, the number of trips between different European countries increased.
And a huge number of travelers crossed the borders daily, and thus the passport control process became more difficult because this document at that time recognized a huge decline in the percentage of its adoption. But with the outbreak of the First World War, the matter changed quickly, as most countries imposed the necessity of adopting the passport for travelers for security reasons, when it was necessary to specify the nationalities of the arrivals to avoid the danger of spies and sabotage operations.
After the end of the First World War, passport procedures continued to be adopted in various major countries “world powers”, while British travelers expressed their indignation at the procedures that forced them to take photographs of them. The British considered these actions an insult to their humanity.
Around 1920, the League of Nations, which preceded the emergence of the United Nations, held a meeting at which it was agreed to issue standard passport guidelines that closely resembled those adopted today.
