Aug-15-23 FIDE World Cup (2023) 
|
csmath: There are also many Nigerians, Pakistanis, Indonesians, Brazilians, and Ethiopians. Chess is a game for populations that have a lot of leisure since they are mostly free from manual labor. India could be a special case, probably due to recent developments in economy and obviously due |
