According to this Ted-Ed video (which is well-animated thx) when the youngest prince of the Gupta empire in the 6th century was killed in battle. His brother made a plan to help the grieving mother. And thus the game of chess was born. IFthe world was perfect, there would be no war, the prince wouldn't have died that soon (most likely assuming these people are smart) and thus, the game of chess wouldn't be here. Quite interesting indeed, and you can watch more of the video because it's really nice (not in any way trying to advertise this video I'm using it as a source) and yea... call me a nerd.
It is actually quite insightful. Also if world suddenly becomes perfect then no in accuracy will be made and maybe people won’t play chess because they will MOSTLY get a draw.
If you imagine a perfect utopia, then you'll realise that it cannot be distinguished from a dystopia. Life is miserable without happy moments, but it would also be dull without the sad ones
IF EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD WAS PERFECT
`
chess wouldn't exist.
`
lemme explain why.
