Carrom

Carrom

Carrom originated in India, and it is believed that the game was adapted from a street-style version existing at that time. The game gained popularity among the masses after World War I, and state-level competitions were held in different parts of India during the early 20th century. The game has also been associated with various names, such as carrom, couronne, carum, karam, karom, karum, and finger billiards.
