About Monopoly
Monopoly was published by Parker Brothers in 1935, having been developed from The Landlord's Game, a board game designed by Elizabeth Magie in 1904 to demonstrate the harm caused by land monopolies. The published version dropped that argument entirely. Hasbro owns it, and the origin was obscured for decades before historians established it.
