Chess is hugely popular around the world, but who invented chess?(Image credit: IronHeart via Getty Images)Chess is one of the world's most popular and beloved games. The United Nations estimates that close to 605 million people around the globe — or about 8% of the world population — play it regularly.While some games slide into obscurity after spending a few years on store shelves, chess has survived the test of time. The game also got a boost from the 2020 Netflix series "The Queen's Gambit," with around 62 million accounts watching the show within its first four weeks. This led to a chess-buying boom, with eBay seeing a 215% increase in chess set sales in the weeks after the show was released.Chess has been around far longer than any person alive today. But where did the game originate, and how old is it?Where did chess originate?The specific origins of chess are, given the game's age, difficult to accurately determine. And, while there is no one person who can be credited as the sole creator of chess, most — though not all — historians think the game originated in India. Related: What was the largest empire in the world?"Besides there being historical attributions in India earlier than in the Middle East, I take a nod from linguistics," Kenneth W. Regan, an international chess master and an associate professor of computer science and engineering at the University at Buffalo in New York, told Live Science in an email."The modern word 'shatranj,' used in both Farsi and Arabic, derives clearly from the Sanskrit 'chaturanga,'" Regan said. "And that is 'chatur,' the root of Latin 'quattuor,' [meaning] four, plus 'anga,' meaning limbs."Get the world’s most fascinating discoveries delivered straight to your inbox.The Sanskrit name "chaturanga" roughly translates to "four members of an army," according

A tie for first place and cost him almost nothing, we spent almost 30 minutes to talk about the game, even in presence of his wife and complaints from her for it being late.Walter loved chess. It was all about chess. Every time since we become more close (from about 2012), we talked a lot. When I had finally beat Walter last year in Reno, I told him, OMG Walter, how hard it was to beat you, and I'm so impressed by the way how resistant you are. I told him that I'm considering to retire from chess. Walter responded, 'There is no such a thing, retiring from chess. If you love chess, it will be always with you. You will be dreaming about chess; you can't retire from chess.'We lost a legend, so sad. Walter will be missed, his passion will be missing. RIP Walter, my friend and mentor. I learned a lot from you, and will try to pass your vision and passion to chess, to all my students."More from GM Yasser Seirawan:"I knew Walter in the early 1970s and we played a lot. I would say that I was one of Walter's very best customers. Most often we would find ourselves playing in the last round and...he won! Walter was an extraordinarily competitive person. Whatever he did, whether he played snooker, ping pong, tennis, chess, he was playing for victory. He taught me not only a lot about chess, what it is to be a good player, but his fighting spirit. You don't go to tournaments to compete, you go to tournaments to win. That was it, end of story. I was really impressed by such an attitude. The same attitude was exemplified by Bent Larsen."He had that killer instinct at the chess board, but was oftentimes kind of a wall, he was very limiting, his colleagues couldn't get passed that facade. But if you did penetrate past that facade, you discovered that he was a very kind person, a very knowledgable person and a person who had a great sense of humor. I remember many, many incidents that we laughed so hard that our tummies would hurt at a certain moment."One anecdote I'd like to share: I was actually having a breakthrough result in 1980 in Wijk aan Zee. I was playing in the top group among top grandmasters, including Walter Browne. I was often with Walter; we'd take walks together, we'd be talking about the tournament. We were quite close."Going into the last round I said, 'Well, you got a big game tomorrow, Walter, you're White with Viktor Korchnoi!' Walter turned it immediately and said, 'No! He's the one who's got a big game!' Viktor
