Credit : Washing Machine Heart : Little Dark Age : Chess is one of the oldest and most popular board games. It is played by two opponents on a checkered board with specially designed pieces of contrasting colours, commonly white and black. The objective of the game is to capture the opponent’s king. A game of chess ends when a player puts the opposing player’s king in a position that cannot avoid capture (checkmate). A game can also be won or lost through concession. A chess match can also end in a draw. This can happen through stalemate, mutual consent, checkmate being impossible to achieve, and in other ways. Chess first appeared in India about the 6th century CE. By the 10th century it had spread from Asia to the Middle East and Europe. Some regard the game chaturanga to be the precursor of modern chess because of the different piece abilities and the win condition being the capture of a singular piece (king). Originally, chess was an intellectual diversion among the upper classes. Chess grew further in the 20th century as it became a profession where people competed for a world title and prize money. Today the Internet has accelerated the growth of chess, with chess content widely available via platforms such as YouTube and Twitch.
