Explain Bear here! Listen up, genius. You asked why Paris can't play chess. The piece in chess that looks like a castle is called a rook, but sometimes people call it a tower. Since the city of Paris is supposedly missing its 'towers' (the chess piece), it can't play the game. Based fact: You probably thought of the Eiffel Tower first, didn't you, smoothbrain?
