  <li>Purchase Chessbase Mega Database (many games already!)</li>
  <li>Data mine www.chessgames.com and <a href="https://www.365chess.com" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.365chess.com</a> (you may need a script)</li>
  <li>Download all TWIC games</li>
  <li>Download lichess games</li>
  <li>Download FICS games</li>
  <li>Download MillionBase database</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Perform an union operation on all those games.</p>

Body: <p>Is there any database of every position ever played in a recorded game? I don't ask of every possible position in chess, or "solving" chess. Only the positions that were played in a recorded game. Ideally, i would like to find for a position how many times it has been recorded to have been played and who won.</p>
