Keno was introduced in 200 before Christ by the Chinese military leader, Cheung Leung who used keno as a way to finance his declining army. The metropolis of Cheung was waging a battle, and after a bit of time appeared to be facing country wide famine with the excessive decrease in supplies. Cheung Leung needed to develop a fast fix for the financial adversity and to produce revenue for his military. He thusly created the game we now know as keno and it was a great success.
