Soviet Chess School The Soviet School of Chess was asserted to be a national style of play by Soviet chess players and journalists. Although chess had been a game of the bourgeois and upper classes before the revolution, its popularity among Bolshevik leaders, including Lenin, contributed to its being supported by state leaders in the USSR as a national pastime. References to a Soviet School of Chess only occurred after World War II, when a generation of Soviet chess players, led by soon-to-be world champion Mikhail Botvinnik, began a string of victories over international competitors that surprised the world.

Howard Staunton Howard Staunton (1810 – 22 June 1874) was an English chess master who is generally regarded as having been the world's strongest player from 1843 to 1851, largely as a result of his 1843 victory over Saint-Amant. He promoted a chess set of clearly distinguishable pieces of standardised shape—the Staunton pattern promulgated by Nathaniel Cook—that is still the style required for competitions. He was the principal organiser of the first international chess tournament in 1851, which made England the world's leading chess centre and caused Adolf Anderssen to be recognised as the world's strongest player.
