Hello friends of this spectacular platform, this time I want to dedicate my post, which in my opinion is the most difficult and spectacular game, chess, is the board game king par excellence, where one is the strategist of a war, because is what this game resembles, a battlefield where the goal is to kill the opponent king (this post was translated into English by google, from my own publication in Spanish).
What is chess?
It is a board game where 2 players face each other with 16 pieces, including 8 pawns, 2 towers, 2 horses, 2 bishops, a lady and a king, the board has 64 squares, divided into 8x8 with black and white squares , where the pieces can be moved according to a set of established rules.
Where it originated?
Chess has many versions of its origin, it is believed according to data and archaeological findings that comes from ancient Asia, more specifically from India where it was known as chaturanga, whose beginning dates from the sixth century, but the game as we know it today had its beginning in Europe in the fifteenth century.
Chess or science game, as many people call it, is so magnificent that despite being a game with a limited number of pieces and spaces, it seems incredible that after the first three movements we make, we have more than 121 million movements We can do different things, which means that the type of game we could play is almost infinite, and this makes one game almost never be the same as another, so this hallucinatory figure tells us why chess is a science game , another one of the numbers that we could know about this game is even more incredible, after the first 10 moves the number of positions that we could get is 165 quadrillion and a half, a lapel for an apparently simple game, but still the The longest recorded game had 194 moves, which seems little if we take into account the number of moves we could make in theory.
And finally I want to send greetings to people who day by day lend their support through this beautiful platform, @anomadsoul, @shamangerbert, @abigail-dantes, @hr1, @elteamgordo and @arcange and teams @votovzla, @reveur and @cervantes.
