A visualization of global chess demographics using FIDE classical ratings
Hey everyone,
I’ve been looking at **FIDE classical rating data** and put together a visualization to explore how rated players are distributed by country.
Some things I found interesting:
* big differences in rated-player density between countries
* regions with many active players but lower average ratings
* how concentrated the global rating pool really is
I’m curious what patterns *you* notice or whether this matches your intuition about global chess strength.
If anyone wants to explore the interactive version, it’s here:
