The first game of chess ever played

Of course, the first game of chess ever played was not recorded. We didn't have algebraic, or even descriptive notation. And I imagine the people who invented chess didn't imagine it would become this popular. So I guess a more accurate title for this article would be, "The first game of chess ever recorded."

So when I had the idea for this article, I began to search everywhere for the first game of chess. It turns out that there may be some games older than this. If you know of one, please send it to me so I can fix this problem.

Anyway, here's the game, with my analysis. I hope you like it!
