The History of Chess traces the journey of one of the world's greatest strategy games, from its early roots in India as chaturanga to its transformation in Persia, the Islamic world and medieval Europe. Along the way, the game gained queens, bishops, castles, champions, tournaments, computers and a permanent place in global culture. This episode explores how sixty-four squares became a battlefield for memory, logic, creativity and nerve.
