How the first lotteries appeared in England?

It was Elizabeth I who introduced many Englishmen to the first lotteries in 1559, that is, just at that time, when the country suffered from many political and economic crises, tearing apart its resources. England was under constant blockade by its enemies, and politicians tried to find a quick and effective solution to this military problem. Of course, many advisers suggested that Elizabeth I simply find herself a worthy and powerful husband, eg, monarch of another country. Elizaveta did not want to take such a desperate step and chose a more interesting and non-standard solution, which she, however, spied on the Italians, that they have already had successful experience in organizing lotteries. In this way, in 1566, the Queen issued a decree to hold the very first official lottery in England, during which participants could win expensive prizes.

To successfully carry out this first draw, было напечатано свыше 400 000 уникальных билетов, moreover, the winning participants in the lottery could collect their winning sum in money, either in gold. As a result, the royal treasury was able to replenish well, and the proceeds from ticket sales went to the most important social needs at that time: repair of harbors and ports in the south of the country. It is thanks to this modernization that in the future England will be called nothing less than the "mistress of the seas" with a very strong fleet., which determined its absolute leadership among all other European states.

Future UK lotteries looking back on first positive experiences, arranged the same on the eve of large and costly projects, to compensate for losses and attract, in this way, population to participate in government buildings. Here you can remember, eg, large-scale construction of an aqueduct in London, which has advanced greatly since, how in 1627 year in support of this project, a widespread lottery draw was held. Also, don't forget about the large British Museum., which were built, among other things, using the proceeds from the corresponding lottery. Among other similar construction projects: construction of large bridges and water pipes, as well as other socially useful and very expensive objects.

Large national lotteries have really been of great benefit to the state, but at the same time, many small lotteries began to appear against their background, in which too many gambling citizens participated. The government is, of course, didn't like, and they decided to ban all possible lotteries from individuals in 1698. In this way, the kingdom wanted to attract all active population to participate only in its lotteries, so that the profit from them can quickly replenish the treasury of England at the right time. At the same time, the ban on participation in local lotteries existed until the 20th century and only through the successive adoption of the corresponding Acts of 1934, 1956-th and 1976, it turned out to obtain permission to hold certain lotteries, organized by private companies.

In the history of lotteries in England there is, of course, and your unpleasant moments. The first serious epidemic of widespread lotomania manifested itself in 1755, when people really went crazy and did everything, to get your coveted ticket. Many acts of vandalism have been recorded, because people in huge queues simply could not stand it and began to break down windows and doors, which caused great damage to urban infrastructure.

In the end, when all these problems became critical, opponents of gambling were able to pass anti-lottery laws in 1825, which completely prohibited the organization of such activities in the UK, because they began to be considered "godless". And yet a fairly large part of the population continued to take part in new sweepstakes, which have now begun to be held unofficially and secretly from the authorities, what caused the corresponding losses.

What do we end up with?

The conclusion suggests itself, where did the prejudice come from, that the citizens of the CIS are denied access to foreign draws. Most likely, players are confused by the rules, listed on the official sites of lottery companies, which, In most cases, cannot sell tickets to their games on the world wide web, since it is forbidden by the founders. However, this taboo was not created against foreigners, but against violating the Constitution of his country and preventing the company from abusing its capabilities.

But that doesn't mean at all, that you cannot use the services of an intermediary. You just need to find a reliable intermediary site and you can consider it a “colleague”, who is on vacation abroad and you simply asked him to go to the store for a ticket and milk. You have the right to drink milk., brought by a colleague? However, you will not be surprised, if the question on the website of a dairy farm “Can I buy a liter of milk from you?, I'm from the CIS?”, the representative will refuse you, explaining this by, that does not cooperate with other countries.

So if you're an adult (and for some lotteries it is enough and 16 years, eg, Еuromillions), you can participate in foreign lotteries. Sometimes, true, there are some situations - some of the countries have individual rules and require the registration of the document data, which only citizens can have. But, often, this goes for those lottery companies, who have the ability to sell tickets for raffles using the Network in their country.

In our case, intermediaries purchase tickets to the cafe for you, shops, at gas stations, in other retail outlets. That is why this rule does not play any role..

Let's hope, that you have no more doubts! Play safely, take risks and collect your winnings!
