  27. ​​ @SS-fu6tu  According to international IQ studies by University Of Helsinki in Finland, the average IQ score of India is below world average, about 80, while China's is 105. International chess is not popular in China that's because Chinese chess is the one mostly played there. There are Chinese grandmasters of international chess, some of the world's best international chess players are Chinese. Chinese are among the top 3 best international chess players in the world, despite international chess is not popular in China, and very few Chinese in the world play international chess. There are is no Indian good at playing Chinese chess though. According to ancient Chinese records dated 200 BC, Chinese chess matching the description of today's Chinese chess already existed. The names of the chess game and pieces are exactly the same as today's. International chess is very similar to Chinese chess except Chinese chess is more sophisticated due to two cannon pieces on each side. The earliest mention of something maybe related to chess in ancient Indian record was in 700AD, almost a 1000 years after the Chinese chess. And there is no evidence that a game resembles international chess or Chinese chess existed in India. What this means is international chess is derived from Chinese chess due to many similarities between them, such as how the horse pieces move in L pattern, diagonal moves of certain pieces, 64 squares on the board, etc. Most likely Chinese chess spread through the silk road to Persia and then to Europe. There is Persian record dated around 500AD mentioning a Persian king was good at playing a chess game with a name that sounds like the name of the Chinese chess game.
