Bingo has been around for centuries, but it definitely hasn't stayed the same. It‘s picked up different habits almost everywhere it has gone. The version played in Britain isn't quite the same as the one played in America. Australia calls it something else entirely. Japan has built lottery-style games around the idea of it, while Germany uses it to teach.
That's part of the reason bingo has remained popular for so long. It adapts.
From Italy to the Rest of the World
Italy can take a lot of the credit here. The game's roots go back to Gioco del Lotto, which appeared in the 16th century. Italians also created Tombola, another number game that has many similarities with modern bingo.
