  • The World Fischer Random Chess Championship Is Now Officially Recognized by FIDE
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Oslo, April 20, 2019. The World Fischer Random Chess Championship is now officially recognized by FIDE This historic event will feature an online qualifying phase on Chess.com, beginning April 28, and is open to all players. The finals will be held in Norway this fall, with a prize fund of $375,000 USD. The International Chess Federation (FIDE) has granted the rights to host the inaugural FIDE World Fischer Random Chess Championship cycle to Dund AS, in partnership with Chess.com. And, for the first time in history, a chess world championship cycle will combine an online, open qualifier and worldwide participation with physical finals. “With FIDE’s support for Fischer Random Chess, we are happy to invite you to join the quest to become the first-ever FIDE World Fischer Random Chess Champion” said Arne Horvei, founding partner in Dund AS. “Anyone can participate online, and we are excited to see if there are any diamonds in the rough out there that could excel in this format of chess,” he said. "It is an unprecedented move that the International Chess Federation recognizes a new variety of chess, so this was a decision that required to be carefully thought out,” said FIDE president Arkady Dvorkovich, who recently visited Oslo to discuss this agreement. “But we believe that Fischer Random is a positive innovation: It injects new energies an enthusiasm into our game, but at the same time it doesn't mean a rupture with our classical chess and its tradition. It is probably for this reason that Fischer Random chess has won the favor of the chess community, including the top players and the world champion himself.

  • Genocídio Armênio Foi Construído Nas Colinas De Tsitsernakaberd Acima Do Cânion De Hrazdan , Em Erevan
    Հայաստան ARMÊNIA EREVAN (CAPITAL) MAPA ARMÊNIA ARMÊNIA GERAL • A Armênia (português europeu) ou Armênia (português brasileiro) (em arménio Հայաստան , transl. Hayastan , ou Հայք , Hayq ), denominada oficialmente de República da Armênia , é um país localizado numa região montanhosa na Eurásia, entre o mar Negro e o mar Cáspio, no sul do Cáucaso. • Animal simbolo é a águia. • Faz fronteira com a Turquia a oeste, Geórgia ao norte, Azerbaijão a leste, e com o Irã e com o enclave de Nakhchivan (pertencente ao Azerbaijão) ao sul. Apesar de geograficamente estar inteiramente localizada na Ásia, a Armênia possui extensas relações sociopolíticas e culturais com a Europa. • Foi a menor das repúblicas da extinta União Soviética . A Armênia configura-se num estado unitário, multipartidário , democrático, com uma antiga herança histórica e cultural. Historicamente foi a primeira nação a adotar o cristianismo como religião de Estado em 301. A Armênia é constitucionalmente um estado secular, tendo a fé cristã uma grande identificação com o povo. O país é uma democracia emergente e por causa de sua posição estratégica, tenta conciliar alianças com a Rússia e com o Oriente Médio . • Entre 1915 e 1923 sofreu o que os historiadores consideram o primeiro genocídio do século XX, perpetrado pelo Império Otomano e negado até hoje pela República da Turquia . As mortes são estimadas em 1,5 milhão de armênios e a deportação de milhões de outros, fazendo com que a Armênia tenha uma diáspora gigantesca pelo mundo, de descendentes que fugindo das perseguições, tomaram o rumo de países como França, EUA , Argentina, Brasil, Líbano e muitos outros.
