How to Setup a Chess Board

Hi I'm Jitin Tuli on behalf of expertvillage.com and now I'm going to tell you about the game of chess. Chess is played a on a board of 64 squares set up in the following way. The rooks begin the game in the corners. The knights many beginning players called them horses are next to the rooks. The bishops starts next to the knights and then the king and the queen. Note that white and black queens both beginning the game on squares of the color. The white queen begins on a white square, the black queen begins on a black square. And at the beginning of the game always start with the white square in the lower white corner of the chess board. To begin the game white moves first and then black taking turns until check mate. Or one player resigns or both players agree to draw.
