France is the country that the modern game of roulette is most associated with. The name roulette comes from the French words meaning “little wheel”. It is believed by some that the roulette was invented by French mathematician Blaise Pascal around 1655 as part of his attempts to create a perpetual motion device. Others attribute the game to bored Dominican monks who invented it for entertainment within the confines of the monastery.
However the game only gained popularity after the French Revolution and since the late 18th century it is played in a way that is identical to the French roulette game played today. Many claim the modern game is a combination different games including the Italian Hoca and Biribi, the English Roly-Poly, Ace of Hearts, E.O. and Reiner. Even the French board game named “Roulette” is associated with the invention.
