Chess has a fascinating history! Originating from chaturanga in India around the 6th century, the game traveled through Persia and the Islamic world before making its way to Europe, where it evolved into various forms. In the 16th century, the game we recognize today began to take shape in Spain and Italy, with the powerful queen and bishop moving adding complexity and speed to the game.
