Some people say that during the 15th century Franco-Italian War, French soldiers became infatuated with a very similar Italian game. Then when they returned, it got slightly altered in the translation and what they brought back to France was Baccarat, pretty much as we know it today.
But on the other hand, many people refute this origin story entirely. They claim instead that Baccarat is more likely to have sprung into existence hundreds of years later, in the 1800s. And this dispute is an interesting first point of baccarat trivia.
