In the past, Chess was known by various names, depending on the region and culture. The game is believed to have originated from an ancient Indian game called "Chaturanga," which means "four divisions of the military." It later evolved into "Shah Mat" in Persia, which translates to "the king is dead," reflecting the game's objective. As it spread through the Islamic world and into Europe, it retained variations of these names before becoming known simply as chess.
