The spread of chess

Hello my name is José Juan and I am going to write about the geography of chess originally called chaturanga which means "four divisions (of the military)": cavalry, infantry,elephantry, and chariotry.
The chess is a mental war in which the blood is not shed .

THE SPREAD OF CHESS

You will ask yourself how Chess got to Europe? Here is the answer.
The chaturanga flourished in India by the 6th century after that this game spread to Persia.When the Arabs conquered Persia, chess was taken up by the Muslim world and subsequently spread to Southern Europe. In Europe, chess evolved into roughly its current form in the 15th century.

The spread of chess from the 12th to the 15th century.
