Badminton is the national sport of which country?

Badminton is the national sport of Indonesia.

Indonesia is also called "Badminton Kingdom", so if you don't talk about badminton in Indonesia, it is easy to be understood as "you are behind the times". However, what is not commensurate with this broad "mass base" is that the Indonesian government's attention and investment in badminton is obviously not at the same level as that of China.

Badminton is an indoor and outdoor sport. According to the number of participants, it can be divided into singles and doubles. Badminton doesn't have high physical requirements for players, but it pays more attention to endurance. With the development of science and technology, the development of racket is developing in the direction of lighter weight, harder racket frame and better elasticity of racket shaft.

Modern badminton originated in England. 1873, there was a duke named beaufort in England who held a garden party in his territory. Several retired officers who came back from India introduced a game of playing shuttlecock back and forth with rackets across the net, which aroused great interest. Because this activity is very interesting, it quickly became popular on the social stage of the upper class. "Badminton" became the name of British badminton. 1893, British 14 badminton clubs established the Badminton Association, the predecessor of the All England Open. Since 1992, badminton has become an official Olympic event.
