The development of chess and card culture in China;

China culture has a long history of 5,000 years, and the history of chess and cards in China is not short. People in China have been fond of chess and cards since ancient times, and enjoy the fun of competing with wisdom. Chess and cards can not only exercise the brain, but also cultivate sentiment. Whether it is a scholar or a heroic warrior, whether it is a powerful person or a common family, it is very enthusiastic about this.

As early as ancient times, there were chessboards. The original chessboard was a sand table for practicing war. At that time, two countries were at war, often fighting each other and killing each other, but after a long time, it was found that this had a very heavy loss to the country and the people, so the war was moved to the table and evolved into a chessboard over time. For China people, chess and cards are not only an entertainment project, but also a kind of culture.
