Well nowadays people use them for pleasure (riding), competing in different disciplines - dressage, showjumping etc, farmwork (drafting), racing, rodeos, police work, riding for the disabled etc. In the past they were used for farmwork (ploughing etc), they were the main source of transport and things like that.

Horses played a very vital and important role in the development of where we are now.

In the 'olden days' probably everyone had a horse(s), although the numbers of people with horses have drematically reduced, a lot of people still own and love horses.
