Parqués is not a Spanish game. It is based on Pachisi, not Parchís (Spanish game). Then I would have to say that Parchís is a Spanish version of the Colombian game, which is not true either. They are different games; Parqués uses 2 dice and Parchís only one, among some rules. See, Parqués is only played in Colombia and some Latin American countries, but it is a variation from Pachisi with some local changes based on indigenous people. Or, where did you learn that Parqués is from Spain? It is not. I suggest that we delete the origin until some of us can prove where it comes from, be it Spain or Colombia. Before that, everything is just an unproved claim.
I mean, you would have to say Parqués is a USA game, because it is similar to Parcheesi. Or a French game because it is similar to Petits Chevaux. A German game, being similar to Mensch-argëre-dich-nicht... Which is not true, obviosly. The fact that Parqués is similar to Spanish Ludo/Parchís does not mean it originates from there neither viceversa, it just means all those games stem from Pachisi. That is the only thing that can be assured.
