The modern game originated during the Qing Dynasty, most likely during the 19th century. While original in its form, the style of &#8216;draw-and-discard&#8217; games are trendy in China, especially with cards. It is believed that Mahjong was originally a card game which made its conversion from stripped decks to 144 tiles as its popularity grew. The most likely predecessor of Mahjong is a card game named Penghu.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do the regional variants of Mahjong consist of?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Regional variants of Mahjong are vast and distinct, encompassing everything from tile differences to entire rule revisions. The most popular Mahjong styles are Chinese, Hong Kong, Western Classical, and Japanese. However, these four variations hardly encompass the full range of variations. For example, &#8216;Chinese&#8217; Mahjong is just the standard rulebook set forth by the Chinese Government right before the turn of the millennium.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>American-Wholesaler Inc.
