The game soccer is very much popular all over the planet. It is even in the poorest region of the globe. Soccer has made a tremendous impact on most people. Even in the early centuries, the game soccer (or a version of it) is played all over the world. World soccer is a part of the human history. All throughout the course of history of man, world soccer have become apparent. In the history of man, world soccer has come and go, more often leaving a historian a few speculations if those particular races do really have the game soccer or a somewhat old version of soccer in their history. 

World soccer has really reached even the most unusual places in the globe throughout history. Take for example, China. It is written in the history of China that the Chinese in the early century play a somewhat version of the modern day soccer. The Chinese call this game �Tsu Chu� which means �to kick a leather and stuffed ball with the feet�. This early version of the game soccer was played usually on the Emperor�s birthday celebration during the �Han Dynasty� which was during the 2nd to the 3rd century B.C. In this early version of Chinese soccer, the objective was to kick the ball through an opening of an erected bamboo canes which has a net placed on it. The �Tsu Chu� was widely played during 206 to 220 B.C. in the �Han Dynasty� and was then added on the war manual for the military training in the Chinese army during the �Tsin Dynasty� around 255 to 206 B.C.

Historians confirmed that soccer in the early century has been popular all over the world. During 300 to 600 A.D., the Japanese have their own version of soccer. The Japanese played a game called the �Kemari� also called �Kenatt�. Kemari was played with a ball made of animal hide (mostly deer skin) that was stuffed with sawdust. Similar to the modern day soccer, Kemari was played by a number of players (mostly eight) that would pass the ball around by juggling it with their feet without touching it and at the same time preventing any ball contact on the floor. 

We all know that the modern day world soccer was established or founded in Britain. During the seventh until the ninth century various ball games similar to soccer have emerged in this part of the globe. One of the most popular versions of world soccer in Europe was the mob football. This kind of world soccer version was very violent and was mostly played amongst villages. In this version of world soccer, opposing teams would try to get the ball into the town center square of the village.

In the present times, soccer is played in almost everywhere. Even in some war torn countries, soccer games are played. That is how popular world soccer is.
