History[change | change source] Checkers dates back to the 12th century, in France. There are two main types of checkers played: the Anglo-American version (which originally came from France) and the Polish or continental version. The Anglo-American version is played on an 8x8 checkerboard with 12 pieces. The continental version (so-called because it is played on the continent of Europe) is played on a 10x10 board with 20 pieces each. There are also a number of variations in various countries.
It isn't just one game, as many people think--there are many games and variations at many skill levels. Domino sets vary in size and complexity, according to the number of dots. This big Double Twelve set has 91 domino pieces, and each piece has from one to 12 color-coded dots at each end, or no dots (blank).
