My question - can someone please explain in plain Engrish why a vaccum system is so important and what it does?

I always hear of issues with vaccum system leaks causing issues, etc, but why?

    Vacuum systems are so widespread because it is a simple way to connect a bunch of different things inside the cars systems to be able to open and shut valves without the need for electricity. Having 2 dozen electric valves would be a mess, so they are all connected with vacuum lines that can open or shut based on different pneumatic pressures.
