Here's a little history of this game from Wikipedia: Chess is a recreational and competitive game for two players. It is derived from Persian shah ("the King"), an abbreviation of Shâh-mât (Checkmate).
Sometimes called Western or International to distinguish it from its predecessors and other cariants, the current form of the game emerged in Southern Europe during the second half of the 15th century after evolving from similar, much older games of Indian origin.
This is a timeless game that gives your brain a thorough workout. Enjoy!
