Why not just use a 24 hour clock, like military time? I understand what am and pm mean, but why did we even start, why haven’t we switched so there’s never confusion?

You may have noticed, a day contains a period of darkness, without sun, and a period with sun. Naturally this led to dividing the hours of a day into two periods at the middle or meridian of the cycle.
Also counting in military time in Roman numerals would’ve been more annoying than it already was.
