the US was afraid that missles from cuba/germany can take out the communication. If say, a server building was taken out, then data can not be passed on efficiently or no way at all.
The Department of Defense decides to create a system of communication that would not have a central point, other words, decentralizing everything. And borned was the idea of the internet, where nothing is all at one place. If a server was taken out, then the information would just reroute itself, go through a different path, and still get to its destination.
