    v The earliest games were the ancient Olympic Games in ancient Greece.

    The birth of the ancient Olympic Games.

    The full name of the Olympic Games is "Olympic Games", and the word "Olympiad" is derived from the Greek place name "Olympia". Olympia is located in the valley of the Afis River, 360 kilometers southwest of the city of Athens, where it is picturesque and has a pleasant climate. The ancient Greeks built many temples here, so the ancients called this land the Divine City of Alpheus, also called"Holy Land"Olympia, according to the beliefs of the time, was a symbol of peace and friendship.

    Ancient Greece and the Earth.

    During festivals and harvest seasons, people from other countries in the maritime region often hold large gatherings, and engage in various amusement and competitive activities. Initially, the event was scattered and irregularly, but the Olympia assembly was the most significant.

    In 884 B.C., war broke out in ancient Greece, and there were many wars in various places, plagues and agricultural harvests. The common people of Greece are very eager for peace and miss the kind of celebrations that were there in those days. As a result, the king of the city-state of Elis, where Olympia is located, contacted the kings of several other city-states to reach an agreement that Olympia would hold regular games, and that a "holy truce" would be observed during the games year.

    The duration of the "Holy Truce" is three months. During this period, no one is allowed to use a sword. Even the two sides that are at war have to put down their ** and prepare to go to Olympia for the Games.

    From then on, there was an all-Greek tournament. By 776 B.C., the name of the winner was recorded in writing for the first time. This is what later generations call the first Ancient Greek Games.

    Since then, the competition has been held every four years. Therefore, the venue of the competition is in Olympia, which is also called the Ancient Olympic Games, referred to as the Ancient Olympic Games. From 776 BC to 349 AD, when the ancient Olympic Games were abolished by the emperors of the Roman Empire, a total of 293 ancient Olympic Games were held.

    The ancient Olympics weren't all joy.

    The ancient Olympics were not meant to be fun for the average Olympic spectator. A typical Olympic spectator, if he were to travel from Athens, would have to trek through most of the Peloponnese, along a rugged pilgrim's trail, in the scorching Mediterranean summer sun, on foot or with the help of a mule and horse, to cover the more than 300 kilometers from Athens to Olympia in two weeks. If you are coming from an overseas colony, it will take longer to take the sea route.

    The history of the Olympics is:

    The Olympic Games originated in ancient Greece more than 2,000 years ago and are named after the place where they were held in Olympia. After the ancient Olympic Games were suspended for 1,500 years, the Frenchman Jean-Pierre de Coubertin proposed the modern Olympic Games at the end of the 19th century.

    The Olympic Committee was established in 1894, and the first Olympic Games were held in Athens, Greece in 1896, the first Winter Olympics in 1924, the first Paralympic Games in 1960, the first Winter Paralympic Games in 1976, the first Youth Olympic Games in 2010, and the first Winter Youth Olympic Games in 2012.

    Logo:

    The Olympic Games have a series of unique and distinctive symbolic symbols, such as Olympic symbols, mottos, Olympic flags, anthems, emblems, medals, mascots, etc., which have rich cultural meanings and vividly reflect the value orientation and cultural connotation of the Olympic ideal.

    The Olympic rings logo, which consists of 5 Olympic rings socketed, has 5 colors: blue, black, red, yellow, and green. The meaning of the five rings is to symbolize the unity of the five continents and the fact that athletes from all over the world meet at the Olympic Games in a spirit of fairness, frankness and friendship.

    The 1980 Moscow Olympics were boycotted by many countries, making them the most failed Olympics in history

    The modern Olympic Games were initiated by the Frenchman Coubertin at the end of the 19th century, and the International Olympic Committee was established in 1894, the first Olympic Games were held in 1896, and then the Olympic Games were held every four years, and for us, the most impressive is the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.

    The Beijing Olympics is proud of both the scale and the achievements of the Chinese team, and it can be said to be the most successful Olympic Games. But if there is one Olympic failure in history, it was the 1980 Moscow Olympics.

    In 1970, Moscow bid for the Olympics for the first time, but they unfortunately lost to Montreal, and four years later, Moscow made a comeback and finally succeeded in bidding. In 1980, Moscow hosted the Olympics, but the Games were a great failure, with more than 50 countries boycotting the Soviet Games.

    Only about 80 countries participated in the Games, because some of the Soviet Union's enumerated moves before the Soviet Olympics touched the interests of Britain and the United States, causing 64 countries including the United States, Japan, and West Germany to boycott the Games.

    About 40 percent of the countries were absent from the Olympics, and many heavyweight countries did not participate, and most of the countries present were relatively backward countries in Africa, South America and Eastern Europe, which disgraced the Soviet Union. The Olympics were the worst spectacle, with many countries not even raising their flags, and the scene was chaotic for a while.

    At that time, the Soviet Union attached great importance to the Olympic Games, spending $9 billion to renovate its cities, improve transportation, and build and improve various sports facilities and stadiums, but many countries did not participate, which made the Soviet Union very angry.

    The 1980 Moscow Olympics went ahead as scheduled, but the top leaders of the Soviet Union did not even attend the opening ceremony, and for various reasons, it became the most failed Olympics. As a result, the level of the Olympics is also very low.

    At the Olympics in Moscow, China also chose to boycott it. And four years later, at the Los Angeles Olympics, the Soviet Union also chose to boycott. However, the Chinese delegation participated in the Olympics for the first time, and there has been no shortage of Olympics since.

    The least successful Olympic Games: St. Louis, USA (3rd in 1904).

    In 1904, the 3rd Olympic Games were held in St. Louis, a city along the Mississippi River in the United States, which was the first time that the Olympic Games were held in a country outside Europe, and also showed that the Olympic Games took an important step on the road to internationalization. One of the main reasons why St. Louis defeated Chicago to host the 3rd Olympic Games is that the World's Fair will be held here. This is also the first time in the history of the Olympic Games that the host city will be decided in a competitive format.

    The competition, which runs from July 1 to the end of October, is as lengthy as the last Paris Olympics, which were stolen by the World Expo. Coubertin was so disappointed that the Olympic Committee had since separated the site of the Games from the World Expo in order to avoid a recurrence.

    There were only 12 participating countries in this Olympic Games, making it the fewest in history. Due to the distance across the ocean, and the failure of the host country to deliver on the promise to send boats to transport European players, many European athletes were unable to participate. A total of 629 athletes participated, including 533 members of the United States team, many of the participating team members are all Americans, and the United States team is strong, taking away most of the medals, so some people say that this Olympic Games is "the Olympics of the United States".

    The 1980 Moscow Olympics were the most failed Olympic Games in history, and half of the countries in the world boycotted and refused to participate, and the other half of the countries that participated were reluctant to raise their national flags, but replaced them with the Olympic rings at the opening ceremony to show that they had come only because they supported the Olympics and did not want to come to the Soviet Union.

    The 1980 Olympic Games, hosted by the Soviet Union, were the most humiliating of the world's most unjust and helpless events in the history of mankind.
