Contrées is a two player abstract game based on the mechanism of majority and surrounding.

Short resume of the rules: The board is modular, it is made of specific hexagonal territories. On that board each player plays his pawns on the corner of the hexagons and try to control as much territories as possible. When a player have 4 pawn around a territory, he can place a possession mark on it and remove the enemy pawns from it. It is pretty simple but be careful, like in the game of GO, you can surround the opponent pawns and capture them. When both player have played all their pawns, the one who control the most territories wins.
