Sometimes I see 'International' as the Player's "Country" but what does it actually mean?

It basically is for members that want to use that as their country. It could be that they don't want to list their actual location or maybe they travel a lot. Or it could be for a lot of other reasons.

It also means their country's flag is banned by Chess.com, arbitrarily.

Chess is a country.

Chess is international.

What's FIDE motto?

I know it English.

We are one family.

I gave a USCF silicone chess set and board to a lady at work. She's from Bulgaria.

She asked: Why do you give it to me?

Women are sharp.

I like her, personally.

I gave her a half the truth answer.

Me: I want to give you something that reminds us that we are all one people.

That is absolutely true.
