Are both Junta and Carrom commonly played by children?
Junta (game) Junta is a board game designed by Vincent Tsao published, as of 1985, by West End Games. Players compete as the corrupt power elite families of a fictional parody of a stereotypical banana republic (specifically "Republica de los Bananas") trying to get as much money as possible into their Swiss bank accounts before the foreign aid money runs out. Fighting in the republic's capital during recurrent coup attempts encompasses most of the game's equipment, rules and playtime. This game-within-the-game is however actually tangential to the players' main goal.
Tout-à-Coup Jazz Tout-à-Coup Jazz was a musical group formed in the Republic of Upper Volta (today Burkina Faso) in the 1970s, during the military rule of Colonel General Sangoulé Lamizana. In French, "tout à coup" is an adverb, meaning roughly "all of a sudden" or "out of the blue". As the name indicates, the band played jazz, and is said to have been relatively popular. The band's membership prominently included Captain Thomas Sankara on the guitar, and his close friend, Captain Blaise Compaoré, on the microphone.
