When and where was ice hockey developed?

  1. In Canada in the 1900s

  2. In the United States in the 1800s

  3. In Canada in the 1800s

  4. In Russia in the 1700s

The correct answer is: In Canada in the 1800s

Ice hockey was developed in Canada in the 1800s. While it was also popularized in the United States in the 1800s, it was primarily developed in Canada. Russia developed bandy, a similar sport, in the 1700s, but it was not the same as modern ice hockey. Therefore, options A, B, and D are incorrect as they reference incorrect countries or time periods. Option C is the most accurate answer as it correctly identifies Canada as the country and the 1800s as the time period in which ice hockey was developed.
