In which country was the game Chinese Checkers invented?
- Germany:Despite its name, the game is not a variation of checkers, nor did it originate in China or any part of Asia. The game was invented in Germany in 1892 under the name "Stern-Halma" as a variation of the older American game Halma. The "Stern" (German for star) refers to the board's star shape. The name "Chinese Checkers" originated in the United States as a marketing scheme by Bill and Jack Pressman, who acquired the rights to the game in 1928. Chinese Checkers would become a tremendous success for the Pressman Toy Corporation.
