The first modern Olympic Games were held in Greece in 1896.
The modern Olympic Games is a modern social and cultural phenomenon constructed in the name of "restoring the ancient Olympic Games", which follows the name of the Olympic Games, inherits the tradition of the Olympiad every four years, borrows and develops certain rituals, and absorbs the ancient traditional ideas of fair competition, courageous struggle, and harmonious development of body and mind. On June 16, 1894, the International Conference on the Reconstruction of the International Olympic Games was held. It was decided that the first modern Olympic Games would be held in 1896 in Jabey, the capital of Greece.
The Greeks showed great enthusiasm for the Games, with 80,000 spectators attending the Opening Ceremony, a figure that was not surpassed until the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics. Since then, the Olympic Games have become a world sports event.
The inception of the modern Olympic Games
The period from 1894 to 1914 coincided with a period of drastic changes in political and economic relations around the world, and various nationalism and xenophobia hindered normal international exchanges. Modern sports are only practiced in a few European countries, and sports competitions are rarely held worldwide.
The Olympic Movement is still in a stage of exploration, and the Olympic Games have not yet formed a certain mode of hosting, such as poor stability of the project setting, poor venue facilities, financial difficulties, irregular dates, unfair law enforcement by referees, stupidity, and lack of clear regulations on qualifications.
The 1908 Olympic Games implemented standardization and standardized management, which built the basic framework for the future Olympic Games. The 1912 Olympic Games were the most successful Olympic Games of this period, with great improvements in terms of participating countries, athletes, venue facilities and organizational work.

Olympia. The first Ancient Olympic Games referred to a sporting competition held in Olympia, Ancient Greece in 776 BC.
The first ancient Olympic Games were held in 776 BC and by 394 AD there were 293 editions. The Games are held every 1,417 days, i.e. every four years. This cycle was later referred to as the Olympic cycle.
With the rise of modern sports, the Greek people wanted to restore the ancient Olympic Games. Between 1859 and 1889, Greece hosted four Olympic Games, making its first attempts. Since 1883, the Frenchman Coubertin has devoted himself to the revival of the ancient Olympic Games.
Through his efforts and several generations, the International Olympic Committee was established on 23 June 1894. The first Olympic Charter, drawn up by Coubertin, emphasized the amateur nature of the Olympic Movement, stipulating that only honorable mentions should be awarded to the winners of the Olympic Games, and that no monetary or other material awards should be given to athletes in any form. The first Olympiad was held in Athens from 6 to 15 April 1896.

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 other countries of the Mediterranean region were bustling with great gatherings and amusement and athletic activities during festivals and harvest seasons. 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.
