Mongolian draughts
Mongolian draughts (daam, from French dame) is the local variant of draughts played in Mongolia.[1] International draughts is also popular in Mongolia, with Mongolia sending high-scoring teams to Asian Draughts Championships (gold, silver and bronze in Kuala Lumpur, 2012), and a team to the World Mind Sports Games.[2]
