The invention of the flush toilet, or “water closet” (WC), changed everything by improving waste disposal and boosting public hygiene.“WC” soon became a common label for restrooms, especially in Europe and Asia. Though terms like “bathroom” and “restroom” are now more popular in other places, “WC” still reflects a key moment in sanitation history.As the article says, understanding the term “WC” is more than trivia—“it connects us to the centuries of progress that turned personal hygiene from a luxury into a basic human right.”Today, those two letters remind us how far society has come in engineering, health, and cleanliness.
