Sjakkbræt

Sjakkbræt, also known as a chessboard, is a fundamental component of the game of chess. It is an 8x8 grid of alternating light and dark squares, typically made of wood or other durable materials. The board is set up with specific starting positions for each player's pieces, which include one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops, and eight pawns. The game is played by two players, each controlling one set of pieces, with the objective of checkmating the opponent's king. The chessboard's symmetrical design and the strategic placement of pieces create a complex and engaging game that has been enjoyed for centuries.
