Default Why does chess have strong links to Russia?

CeeBee left a note on my windscreen which said:

As per header. I know the game is thought to be Chinese in origin


Wasn't that 6th century India?


I've been googling for a decent chess history site but yet to no avail.
If it is currently thought to be Indian rather than Chinese in origin
then I stand corrected.

But what I'm really insterested in is how and why Chess is so strongly
related to Russia nowadays.
