Badminton was invented in the 1860s by the daughters of the Duke of Beaufort, based loosely on an ancient game called "battledore and shuttlecock" and using the same equipment.
It was named after their dad's summer mansion, Badminton House in Gloucestershire, England, where they first played it.
The dimensions of the modem official badminton court, 44 feet long and 17 feet wide, reportedly match those of the room where the young women developed the game.

Countries in east and south-east Asia are well-known for dominating the sport, especially the likes of China and Indonesia, who consistently win the Olympic Games for badminton, the Thomas and Uber Cups Tournament and the All England Championship. The sport may not be the most important game in China as the Chinese excel in many other sports as well. However, in countries like Indonesia and Malaysia, badminton can be regarded as the unofficial national sports since this is the only sport that the two countries really excel in at the international level and pin their Olympic medal hopes almost exclusively on this sport. Chinese, Indonesian, Malaysian and Danish badminton players (both male and female) regularly feature on the top ten list of the best badminton players in the world.
