      If you count FIDE World Champions during the split, that adds one to Ukraine, Uzbekistan and one more to Russia.

      I thought only Bobby Fischer won the World Chess Championship from the US. Who is the other person?

      Estonian Grandmaster **Paul Keres** was the “Paul the Second” or “The Eternal Second”. His career was highly determed by the WWII and afterwards by the Soviet security services (NKVD/KGB). He was in several occaisions denied to take a win against Soviet World Champions and to take part the World Chess Championship tournament. Likely he could won the one.

      Russia has officially inherited all USSR titles including chess champions. It is incorrect to assign those to individual countries as they are not inheritors of SSR republics

      Damn there aren’t a lot of these being handed out. How often do the championships happen?

      Just so you know, counting people of Armenian ancestry as Azerbaijani because they were born in Azerbaijan can be bad for your health if you do it in the same room as them.

      I am pretty sure that Kasparov primarily considers himself to be Russian, even though he’s half-Armenian, anyway.
