China
Keywords: Culture & History
World's most populous country, and circa 1500 BCE, the birthplace of Go (date disputed, see Go History). From China, Go spread to Korea and then to Japan. There is evidence in China of Go equipment from over 2000 years ago (found in Imperial tombs). The game suffered a decline in China in the 1960's due to the Cultural Revolution, but in the quarter century since Mao, the game has come back in a massive way, to a point where Chinese pros are as strong as their Korean and Japanese counterparts.
