Olympic Games

The Olympic Games are a major international multi-sport event held every four years, featuring summer and winter sports competitions. Athletes from around the world compete in a wide range of sports, striving for excellence and representing their countries. The games promote the ideals of sportsmanship, excellence, and friendship, and are governed by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The tradition of the Olympics dates back to ancient Greece around 776 BC, where they were held in Olympia in honor of the god Zeus. The modern Olympic Games were revived in the late 19th century and have since grown into one of the most prestigious sporting events globally, showcasing not only athletic skill but also cultural exchange and international unity.
