Chess<\/a><\/strong>, as has been pointed out, has changed, but in its attire, in its forms only, by no means in its essence, in its idea. That has remained unchanged throughout the many centuries of his life. Discovering this idea, therefore, is not difficult: at all times Chess has had the will, the intention, the meaning of imagining a war between two parties: a war of extinction, conducted according to rules, laws, of a cultured manner, but without mercy. This becomes evident in the game rules almost at first glance.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPeople believe that Chess originated in India in the 4th or 5th century, but no one really knows who invented it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Origin of the word Chess<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
This word in its etymology comes from the Arabic “ax-xatranch” and the Persian “shatranj”. Initially, his name was chaturanga, in reference to the four wings of the Indian army: elephants, chariots, horses and infantry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Origin King<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe origin of the name “King” comes from the Persian term sha, which means “king” or “emperor”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lady Origin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIts original name was alferza or fiz, which comes from the Spanish Arabic term alfarza and the Persian farzin, meaning guardian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Origin Tower<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIn the origins of the game, there was a piece named rukh, it represented a war chariot. Upon reaching Europe, this name was associated more with the word rock and soon after with fortress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Origin Horse<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIt represents the cavalry army, and it is one of the pieces that has changed the least since its origin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bishop Origin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe chess piece with the most controversy about its name. Alfil means “elephant”, it comes from Arabic and these animals carried soldiers to the battlefield. But in its beginnings in Europe it was known as bishop (bishop in English).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Origin Pawn<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe pawn represents the infantry, in fact the term pawn referred to the infantry itself before the creation of chess, since it refers to walking or walking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
History of Chess in Europe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The history of chess in Europe began a thousand years ago. At that time the most acclaimed was in Spain, the game of nobles and teachers. In the feudal castles and in the courts of the princes it was cultivated; he praised himself in artistic poems. For centuries it was the aristocratic, noble, royal game, accessible only to a refined taste. Later it penetrated through Italy and France, and at last found a home wherever the white man’s foot trod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
History of Chess in Spain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Chess with the current rules was born at the end of the 15th century in Spain, and arose from a chess that the Muslims brought with the difference that we incorporated the queen, which gives great dynamism to the game because it is the most powerful piece, in homage to Isabel the Catholic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At first, chess was an exclusive hobby of the rich, but time made it cross-class and inter-ethnic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Who and where was Chess today invented?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Like almost every Spanish creation, this one includes a controversy. Llibre dels jochs partits dels schachs in the name of 100, is a book published by the Segorbian Francesch Vicent in 1495, in which it could be demonstrated by its content that modern chess was invented in Valencia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But here comes the controversy, and that is that this book disappeared and therefore prevents us from assuring that modern chess was invented in Valencia, leaving Salamanca as its birthplace, based on Lucena’s book, Repetition of loves and art of chess, printed in 1497.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
