A domino is one of a set of rectangular tiles that are used in playing an ancient game. The tiles have various combinations of spots on them which are combined to achieve the game's objective.

There is also a game played with dominoes that involves setting them on their small ends in lines, in such a way that pushing the first in line into the second will cause all the tiles in the line to fall in sequence. Some highly intricate works involving thousands of dominoes have been put together in that way, to be destroyed with one touch. Once set in motion, the tiles fall quickly and are extremely difficult to stop.

The use of dominoes mentioned above is the origin of the expression "Domino Effect," where one action begets yet another and these lead to yet more, and sometimes to unexpected consequences.

Hahaha the first two paragraphs are totally unrelated to the question and the third dosen't answer the question at all. A domino is a lever because when It is in mid-fall(only standing on one edge), the edge acts as a fulcrum and the load on the side is gravity.
