Happy International Chess Day!♟️
Today, on International Chess Day, we celebrate a century since the establishment of the Fédération Internationale des Échecs – FIDE, which took place here, in Paris, in 1924. During the past 100 years, FIDE has sought to safeguard, develop, and promote chess. From standardizing the game rules and tournament regulations, to introducing the rating system, awarding titles, and organizing new events and competitions, FIDE has always been at the forefront of the chess world.
As we look towards the future, we should reflect on the remarkable journey of chess over the past 100 years, celebrated globally this year with the #FIDE100 project. We honour the famous players and coaches and the remarkable individuals who helped build FIDE and unite the chess world. Thanks to their efforts, chess is now played by millions of people worldwide – from enthusiasts to professionals, both online and over the board, all sharing a passion for the game.
The achievements of the past century inspire us to aim higher and push harder to ensure that chess continues to thrive for generations to come.
May the next 100 years of FIDE bring more success for chess and even more chess to the world. Let us always remember and live by our motto: Gens Una Sumus – We Are One Family.
And finally - to celebrate International Chess Day, today we are organizing the Guinness World Records attempt - for most games played online and over the board in 24 hours. I hope you will join us and enjoy!
FIDE President
Arkady Dvorkovich
When merit is weakened in political, governmental, social, educational, cultural, and market institutions, then the unworthy person begins to lead the worthy world. All kinds of institutions are destroyed by this, and the deserving ones embrace the way of escape.
Copied!!!
Wishing you a happy and prosperous 2024! 🎆
May your games be sharp, your moves precise, and your victories sweet. Here is to a new year of achieving your chess goals! 🎊 ♟️

Never blame people in life,
The good people give you happiness.
The bad people give you experiences.
The worst people give you lessons.
And the best people give you memories...

आफ्नो देशको प्रधानमन्त्रीलाई खुईल्याउदा आफू पनि खुईलिएका हुन्छौं भन्ने हेक्का राखेकै छौं । पुकदा संग अपेक्षा राख्न छोडौं, यो भ्रमण राजकीय सम्मान वाला थिएन भन्दै चित्त बुझाउँ । (भ्रमण न खिसिटिउरी गर्ने खालको, न नै उच्च प्रशंसा ...)😋
रेशमको आममाफीले तातिएको सामाजिक संजाल....? देशमा प्रधानमन्त्री पुष्पकमल दाहालजी हुनुहुन्छ भन्ने नभुलौं । फुटबल र गुच्चाको कथा जस्तै हो ।। भुलभुलैया ! राजनीति !!
