Recreating 1924!
100 years ago, 15 delegates met during a chess tournament at Mairie de 9 arrondissement de Paris (City Council) and agreed to establish FIDE! And so, the new association was created and registered under French law. #FIDE100 ♟️ 💯
Precisely 100 years later, we are meeting once again at the same venue to commemorate and reenact this historical event. Today, FIDE invited the 15 founding federations to sign the memorandum, just like a century ago!
