Chess is a board game played between two players. It is played on a
chessboard, which is a square-checkerboard with 64 squares arranged
in an eight-by-eight grid. At the start, each player controls sixteen
pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops, and
eight pawns. The object of the game is to checkmate the opponent's
king, whereby the king is under immediate attack (in "check") and
there is no way to remove or defend it from attack on the next move.
The current form of the game emerged in Europe during the second half
of the 15th century after evolving from a much older game of Indian
origin. Aspects of art are found in chess composition. Theoreticians
have developed extensive chess strategies and tactics since the
game's inception.
