London System, with Be2
Overview
London System, with Be2 is a specific line in the Flank Openings family (ECO A48), arising from a recognised theoretical position.

The line arises from 11 plies — specifically the moves 1. d4 Nf6 2. Nf3 g6 3. Bf4 Bg7 4. e3 d6 5. h3 c5 6. Be2.
The line refines London System, which traces back to the root opening Queen's Pawn Game.
