While there are many examples of games resembling hockey go as far back in history to the Middle Ages, the actual game of hockey developed in Canada in the 19th century. There seems to be be some debate over whether the British soldiers and the natives to Canada developed the game and some believe that there may have even been an Icelandic influence on the game in 1875 as well.
