Chess

idk but in the Hindi language the pieces go like this:

king (king)
vizier (queen)
elephant (rook)
camel (bishop)
horse (knight)
infantryman (pawn)

so ....... camels are pretty dope.

That's because Chess went through a lot of evolution. Details at https://spotlightongames.com/list/chess.html

You know that gun powder has originated in China, right?

I wonder if they had back then the word "gun" ...
