Brief History
The first edition of History of the World by Ragnar Brothers was a small-press edition (with a tea-towel board). It was then republished by Gibsons Games and Avalon Hill. In 1994, History of the World won the Origins Award for Best Pre-20th Century Boardgame of 1993. After Avalon Hill was purchased by Hasbro in the early 2000s, History of the World was rereleased as a big box game with hundreds of plastic pieces. Ragnar Brothers released a revised version of the game, "A Brief History of the World", in 2009.
