how is that explained? By traditionally strong school or by local authorities' support?

@@tadcotadco6344 Vishy Anand is from the state of Tamil Nadu in India, so naturally chess first took off in Chennai, I think Anand has some schools there as well, India's best chess coach GM R.B Ramesh is also in Chennai so they have a better support than the rest of India

Chess invented in india

[@whaddoiknow6519]

As an example of Kasparov's character, it is worth recalling how he behaved with Anand when he was trailing him in their match in New York City. Every time he made a move, he would get up to go to the bathroom, and slam the door behind him. Anand was a very young player back then, and Kasparov was the defending champion. This incident needs to be a prominent part of Kasparov's biography.

[@nl3064]

Well, the very earliest proto-form, yes - but obviously, it only became what it is once it spread west, with the Europeans finalizing the modern-day rules. Besides that, India basically disregarded chess for the most part until 2007, when Anand became champ.

shouldn't we be comparing based on how many people plays chess instead of total population? What if India and China only have like 1000 people playing chess? People in China are much more likely to play Chinese Chess.

[@imgnryvansh]

Population literally doesn't matter, here in India, very very few people know how to play chess and forget about playing professionally, like cricket if Indians go crazy for chess, India will have more GM's soon

[@BanCommies_Fascists]

Missed US?

[@tadcotadco6344]

actually, if you take not by passport, but by origin, then in "1 million/GM ratio" I guess the Armenians are ahead. There are many strong GMs of Armenian origin in Russia, USA, France, etc. Then, I guess, Icelanders, Jews, Azeris, Russians. In Soviet time there was a pure Jewish dominance in chess. And not only in USSR. The most of American GMs were Jewish too including Fischer

if the Chess Olympiad were held on 10 boards (and not 4 as now), then I think the teams would line up as follows: 1. India (or Russia) 2. Russia (or India) 3. Armenia 4. China 5. USA The specificity is that some countries (like the current champion Uzbekistan, Poland, France, Azerbaijan, Hungary, Spain) have only 3-4 high-level players, and their second team would not have any real chance to take a high place (let's say in the top 10), if participated in Olympiad.. Others can field another decent 4- persons national team (like the USA by Dominguez, Sevian, Shankland, Niemann, as well as China). Armenia can field 3 teams of approximately equal strength, and India and Russia can field several. In an Olympiad held on 100 boards Russia and India would be out of competition. Ukraine had very strong chess school at Soviet time and was 2nd in the world after Russia, but now the realities are different.
