The 38th Chess Olympiad will be held in Dresden (Germany) from 12th to 25th of November 2008.
Just in a few days ago the Olympiad organizers announced that with a list of 152 federations to participate this edition will be record-breaking.
Armenia (men) and Ukraine (women) will defend their current team champion titles from The 37th Chess Olympiad (Turin, 2006). The Russian teams, which are always considered as the grand favourites, will seek a revenge for their blunders in last edition. With average 2750 ELO Russian men's team is the strongest rated ever.
