History of Chess

History of Chess

Hi, and thanks for visiting my blog on the history of chess.
It's a fascinating game that goes back at least to Northern
India over 1500 years ago. War between kings was normal
then, all over the world, and so it's natural that when they
played a game, it was a substitute for making war.
