This just came to mind.. When and how was it decided that the alphabet was gonna go a, b, c, d, e, f, g...? And when did vowels and consonants become a thing?
This has been asked a number of times and has its own section in the FAQ. You might be interested in the following posts:
Who decided that the Alphabet should go in the order it is and why?
How did the "alphabetical order" of Latin script (the "English alphabet") come to be?
However I also strongly recommend taking a look at this answer by u/intangible-tangerine which handles it much more comprehensively.
Of course other people are welcome to comment as well.
