History of Olympic Games

• The Olympic Games, or Olympic, are international
  multi-sport events taking place
  ever four years and
  comprising summer and winter games.
• Beginning in 776 BC, they were originally held in
  Olympia, Greece until 393 AD.
• In 1896, they were revived by a French nobleman,
  Pierre Fredy, Baron de Coubertin, thus beginning
  the era of the Modern Olympic Games.
• The Summer Olympics (Games of the Olympiad) have
  been held every four year starting in 1896,
  except in 1916, 1940 and 1944 due to the World
  Wars. Greece and Australia are the only nations
  which attend every Summer Olympics.
• During the ancient times only young men could
  participate. Competitiors were usually naked, so
  no women was allowed to watch.
• For some events, many of the participate would
  use oils to keep their skin smooth, as well as
  provide an appealing luster.
• Even though the bearing of a torch formed an
  integral aspect of Greek ceremonies, the ancient
  Olympic Games did not include it, nor was there a
  symbol formed by interconnecting rings.
• These Olympic symbols were introduced as part of
  the modern Olympic Games.
