When I was in hargeisa playing chess at a local coffee shop I noticed the top of the kings were broken, I didn’t think too much of it because things like that happen commonly over continued use. Even though it was kind of odd only the king pieces were kind of chipped
for those of you guys that don’t know the chess king is commonly adorned with a cross on top to signify his crown like so;
you can see where I’m going with this
I come to laascaanood and my uncle tells me we have a chess set in the office, I go there and check it out. First thing I notice is this;
I put two and two together and realized they purposely chop off the cross because it signifies christianity
I started dying
The fact that it happened both in hargeisa and laascaanood was even funnier, every chess set in Somalia is probably missing the cross on the king
