National Play Monopoly Day
-- Monopoly is derived from The Landlord's Game created by Elizabeth Magie in the United States in 1903 as a way to demonstrate an economy that rewards wealth creation is better than one where monopolists work under few constraints and to promote the economic theories of Henry George — in particular, his ideas about taxation. It was first published by Parker Brothers in 1935. The game is named after the economic concept of monopoly — the domination of a market by a single entity. It is now owned and produced by the American game and toy company Hasbro.

-- In the late 1800s lived Lizzie Magie, a clever and charismatic woman with a strong sense of justice. Waves of urban migration drew Lizzie's attention to rising financial inequality. One day she had an idea: create a game showing the unfairness of the landlord-tenant relationship. But game players seemed to have the most fun pretending to be wealthy landowners. Enter Charles Darrow, a marketer, and salesman with a vision for transforming Lizzie's game into an exciting staple of American family entertainment.
