Question

The Game Of Chess Was Invented For A Persian King

Answer 1

Answer:

Legend has it India exported the ancient form of chess to Persia, giving King Chosroes Anushirvan a game that was invented just for him: the game of “four kings,” or “chaturanga.”

Answer 2

The earliest predecessor of the game probably originated in India, before the 6th century AD. From India, the game spread to Persia. When the Arabs conquered Persia, chess was taken up by the Muslim world and subsequently spread to Southern Europe.
