文化的背景

La Belote is the most popular card game in France. It's a trick-taking game that requires a 32-card deck and is a staple of French social life. In the South of France, playing cards (especially 'La Manille') in the town square or local bar is a daily ritual for many men. Le Tarot is extremely popular among university students. It uses a special 78-card deck and involves complex strategy and bidding. During the French Revolution, card makers removed the crowns from the Kings and Queens to reflect republican values.
