why lots of chess players represent different countries throughout different periods?

chess is a sport?

It's not that common. The ones that immediately come to mind are Caruana, So, Naiditsch and Nisipeanu.

>Nakamura

yeah it's better than our neighbors but unless you are in filthy rich Santiago, Chile it's pretty much poor-USA tier (ghetto tier in "big" towns) you WILL get mugged a couple of times and shit like that, it's not like the fucking favela (mostly) i guess it's more of an attitude thing, here you get raised "looking over your shoulder"

I feel it's appropriate to point out that whereas Peru, Venezuela, Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil all have players well above 2600, Chile is nowhere close.

Caruana is Italian (sicilian) so here I am
