Backgammon is a member of the tables family, one of the oldest classes of board games in the world. And it's fun to play a rainy day.
What country was Backgammon invented in?
Persia (Iran)[edit] Excavations at Shahr-e Sukhteh (Persian شهر سوخته, literally "The Burnt City") in Iran have shown that a board race game existed there around 3000 BC. The artifacts include two dice and 60 checkers, and the set is believed to be 100 to 200 years older than the Royal Game of Ur.
