Why do we always have to say please??

Yes, I know that it’s polite, but what is its purpose? Why isn’t asking for something enough? How long have people said please? What’s its history?
Also, why tell people your welcome after you’ve been thanked? Shouldn’t these words just be assumed? Why has it evolved that you must say these things or you’re considered inconsiderate?
