Chess Origins:
Chess, with its origins in northwest India in the 6th century, began as "chaturaṅga," representing divisions of infantry, cavalry, elephants, and chariotry. This evolved into the modern pawn, knight, bishop, and rook. The game traversed the Silk Road, reaching Western Europe and Russia by the 9th century. Adapted by the Muslim world after Persia's conquest, it underwent naming shifts, with "checkmate" originating from the Persian "shāh māt," meaning "the king is helpless." The 12th-century modifications in southern Europe solidified the game, paving the way for the chess we cherish today.
