In Response To: Freakonomics: Why Isn’t Backgammon More Popular? (Martaille Jean-Francois)

I support your efforts for france. I remember back in 2001 France had large Federation. What happened today with that federation?

Only logical solution is:

Local club base (local tournaments)- unitying into national federation (with common national tour), and unitying national federations into the international one (with common international tour)

Large nations can use Regional, Provincial or State tours/associations as well
