<human>:  What is the history of the game Monopoly?
<bot>: Monopoly is a board game that was first published by Parker Brothers in 1935. It is based on the late 19th century version of the game that was originally invented by Charles Darrow and marketed by Elizabeth Magie. The objective of the game is to be the wealthiest player, by buying, renting and trading property and accruing money. Players move around the board, buying and trading property, and collecting and trading “Chance” and “Community Chest” cards, while avoiding “jail” and the dreaded “Income Tax”. Along the way, players take advantage of the four railroad squares to build stations and increase their wealth. At the end of the game, the player with the most money wins. Monopoly has seen numerous variations; it has been released in many languages, and remains popular among players all over the world.
