My name is Maxim, I am 8 years old. I love chess.
Ekaterinburg Russia
Everything you always wanted to know about Ekaterinburg, Russia:
Yekaterinburg is a city in Russia, east of the Ural Mountains. It’s known for the golden-domed Church on the Blood, built in the early 21st century on the site of the 1918 Romanov executions. The Monument to the Founders stands by the banks of the Iset River. Exhibits at the nearby Sverdlovsk Regional Local Lore Museum include the Hall of the Romanovs, with personal items that belonged to the last royal family.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne

When I play chess against a Russian at https://lichess.org/ I almost always lose, but today I was able to get a draw. How was that possible? I found out my opponent is only 8 years old. Most of the game I was losing.
