Put the sentences in the correct order:
- Today's passports build on that standardized design by embedding a microchip that stores the holder's biometric data, making forgery far harder than in the past.

- The upheaval of the First World War then pushed many countries to require these documents of nearly all travelers, since governments wanted tighter control over who crossed their borders.
- As nation-states solidified their borders in the nineteenth century, governments began issuing more formal travel documents that identified the holder's name and nationality.
- In earlier centuries, travelers crossing foreign territory often carried nothing more than a letter from a local ruler asking that the bearer be allowed safe passage.
