Some king's wife invented the game to stop him from constantly going to war. However a small percentage of historians think it originated in China
Some king's wife invented the game hahaha another great story
I will say Pokemon invented the game haha
Google it and first word comes INDIA
So far it's all bla bla bla and no facts or references given !
You want to know why?
Well ok I will educate you this time for free once only. It's simple , chess is a mystery and it stays like that in the history.
Like we can't solve chess, we also can't state exact origins of it and all we can do right now is just guess,predict and hope.

Yeah wikipedia says that the game is believed to have been originated in India. Could be but my guess is that similar variations of the game were invented in other places as well and eventually came together to be the game we know today.
This is so much fun, I should post my bank account here, so who ever claims that chess was originated in India and can't proove it sends me $10. I will be rich by the end of the day lol

I was more or less just repeating what I read, ESP-918. I personally don't think the game is from one time period or country, but more like several influences from several different places and time periods.
History can't be challenged. If the historians says it was originated in India, then it was. Historians have put in their efforts to unearth the facts. If you need the facts, better contact some historian or chess museum.
Good Luck!
