Dominoes are a family of tile-based games. The pieces are rectangular tiles with two square ends. These square ends are marked with the number of spots on them. The object of the game is to match all of the pieces in a row. You can play with dominoes in a variety of ways, but they are typically played in two-player games.
The domino theory
The domino theory is a geopolitical theory that posits that changes in a country’s democracy will eventually influence neighboring countries. Its application is particularly pertinent to current world events. For example, if a country is in a democratic state and a major political party changes its leadership, those changes will eventually spread to neighboring countries.
Some critics of the domino theory argue that the theory has failed to predict the spread of communism throughout the world. The communist takeover of Vietnam, which was followed by communist regimes in neighboring states, has been used as a case study. The Viet Minh and Khmer Rouge in Vietnam, for example, benefited from supplies from China and the Soviet Union. Hanoi also supported the Khmer Rouge and Pathet Lao. In addition, the Soviet Union provided military supplies to Sukarno during the Guided Democracy period in Indonesia and with military advisers in the Sumatra civil war of 1958.
Variations of the Draw Game
In domino, the draw game has different variations. For example, players can play Muggins (also called All Fives) if their total pip count is divisible by five. In addition, players can score points in every move if they have one or more doubles.
A game with two players consists of shuffled bones and drawing a bone or two from the boneyard. If a player’s boneyard does not have a playable tile, he or she must pass the turn.
European-style dominoes
European-style dominoes are traditionally made from ivory or bone and feature contrasting black and white pips. They originated in Europe and have been enjoyed ever since. Today, you can find them in a variety of materials, including stone and plastic. Many people enjoy playing dominoes with friends and family.
European-style dominoes are a popular family activity. These games are popular both in North America and throughout Europe. Despite their long history, dominoes have many different variations and styles. Chinese-style dominoes have simple rules and can be played by one person, while European-style dominoes are played with multiple players.
