Risk board game

Risk is a classic strategy board game of diplomacy, conflict, and conquest created by French filmmaker Albert Lamorisse and originally released in 1957 as La Conquête du Monde. The game involves players attempting to capture territories from their opponents on a map of the Earth. It has since become one of the most recognizable and influential tabletop games in history.

Today, the brand is owned by Hasbro, an American multinational conglomerate with a focus on toys and board games. While the game originated in France, the primary ownership transitioned to the American company Parker Brothers, which was eventually acquired by Hasbro. Manufacturing for Risk takes place in various locations globally, including facilities in the United States, Ireland, and East Asia, depending on the specific edition and regional distribution needs.
