WORLD HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -Just like with Checkmate, in a Stalemate the King cannot move-he has no Safe Squares. In fact, a Stalemate happens when there are no legal moves, just like Checkmate. The only difference is that since the King isn’t threatened, the attacker can’t claim a win and the game is declared a Draw!

Detailed explanation-2: -Stalemate is a situation in chess where the player whose turn it is to move is not in check and has no legal move. Stalemate results in a draw.

Detailed explanation-3: -What Is a Stalemate? A stalemate is a special type of draw in the game of chess that occurs when the chess player who has to move cannot make any legal moves to a safe square but is also not in check. Stalemate typically ends the game with a draw-a scenario in which there is no way for either player to win the game.

Detailed explanation-4: -A player who makes a draw claim under 14C cannot withdraw it; however, it is still considered a draw offer (14). If a player moves, then claims a draw and presses the clock (5H), or claims a draw, then moves and presses the clock, the move stands, and this is considered an offer of a draw (14).
