Final answer:
The 'Landlord's Game' patented in 1904 by Lizzie Magie ultimately became what we know today as Monopoly, after being adapted by Parker Brothers.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Landlord's Game, first patented in 1904, is widely recognized as one of the earliest versions of the popular board game known as Monopoly. The game was created by Lizzie Magie as a way to demonstrate the negative aspects of concentrating land in private monopolies. Her game was designed to show the economic consequences of Ricardo's Law of Economic rent and the Georgist concepts of economic philosophy. Parker Brothers eventually adapted her idea and turned it into Monopoly, a game where players buy and trade properties and develop them with houses and hotels.
