First of all, I want to say that the Romanian word for chess is "sah", (sounds like "schack"). The word "sah" also defines a persian (or arabic, I'm not sure) king.
Don't you know the game story?
Once upon a time... there was a "sah" (persian knight), who was boring. So, a guy invented the game and named it like the king.
The king was very pleased and told him to take everything he wants. The guy wanted grain. He said to put one grain on the first square, two on the second, 4 on the third, 8 on the next, and so on, until the 64th. He wanted all that grain.
Do you have any ideea how much grain there was?
2^64-1 tells you something?
