    It is very expensive to hold the Olympic Games, South America is generally underdeveloped, and there is no idea of losing money and making money, slapping a swollen face and becoming fat, which is the biggest reason why South America has not held the Olympics, until they feel that the benefits will outweigh the costs They will have enthusiasm; South Americans are keen on a relatively single sport, mainly football, they are willing to host the men's World Cup, but their enthusiasm for hosting the Olympics has greatly decreased;

    You first understand the difference between Latin American countries and South American countries. To put it simply, Latin American countries refer to the Americas south of the United States. South America refers to the Americas south of the Panama Canal.

    Mexico is a Latin American country, but not a South American country. After Rio de Janeiro won the right to host the 2016 Olympic Games, Brazil celebrated nationally, with the main reason being that the Games were being hosted in South America for the first time.

    Who says no? Wasn't Mexico City 1968 South America?

    The Olympics are sporting events.

    But mega-events and political economy are inextricably linked.

    The countries of South America are economically.

    Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina, which are in the developed countries, are actually struggling to survive.

    In addition politically.

    South America has long been suppressed by North America and Europe.

    It is estimated that North America and Europe only want South America to be a supplier of raw materials.

    Therefore, it is not very loud to speak internationally.

    The top 30 did it once in Mexico.

    Others are still being declared, such as in 2016

    It's not the same. 1. The time of holding is different: the Olympic Games are in the summer, and the Winter Olympics are in the winter.

    The Winter Olympics are held every four years and are held every two years from the Olympic Games. The 1992 Winter Olympics were the last Winter Olympics to be held in the same year as the Summer Olympics.

    2. Different competitions: All events in the Winter Olympics are ice or snow sports; The Olympic Games are sports other than the Winter Olympics that are regulated by the International Olympic Committee. In the most recent Olympic Games, for example, there were 26 events; The Winter Olympics will only have five sports: skiing, ice skating, luge, ice hockey and curling.

    3. Different degrees of importance: Relatively speaking, the international community and sports organizations of various countries attach more importance to the Olympic Games; Due to conditions, time constraints and other reasons, the importance of the Winter Olympics is far from catching up with the Olympic Games.

    1. The first Olympic Games in Asia were held in 1964, and the 18th Summer Olympic Games were held in Tokyo, Japan from October 10 to 24, 1964. Originally, Tokyo hosted the Olympic Games in 1940, but it was cancelled due to World War II. 2. After 14 Olympic Games were held in Europe, the United States and Australia, the 1964 Olympic Games finally took the turn of Asia for the first time.

    And the first lucky winner in Asia is Japan. On October 10, 1964, the 18th Olympic Games were held in Tokyo, the capital of Japan. Tokyo is the economic and cultural center of Japan.

    Whether it is the antique and oriental Imperial Palace, the bustling city of Ginza, and the beautiful scenery of Japan, it is a huge attraction for athletes and tourists from all over the world. As a result, the IOC at the time chose Tokyo as the host city for the Games.

    Why have the Olympics been held in Asia for the past few years? In fact, every time the Olympics come to Asia, it becomes a major festival for the host country. The 1964 Tokyo Olympics gave Japan, a defeated country in World War II, an opportunity to show its friendly side to the world as a pioneer in the development of science and technology.

    At the 1988 Seoul Olympics, South Korea showed the world that they had not only made considerable political achievements, but were also making a real transition to parliamentary democracy. The 2008 Beijing Olympics underscored China's status as a world economic superpower.

    In general, for the Summer Olympics, the Olympics in the past two decades have not been concentrated in Asia, except for the Beijing Olympics in 08 and the just-concluded Tokyo Olympics, the others are not in Asia. For the Winter Olympics, it is true that the last two Winter Olympics have been in Asia, which may also mean that Asian countries have begun to pay more attention to ice and snow sports.

    The economic situation in Asia as a whole is stronger than that of Europe and other continents, and most of the people who host the Olympics now lose money, and other countries are reluctant to bid for the Olympics, so the chances of Asian countries bidding for the Olympics have greatly increased, and this is the main reason.

    The countdown to the Beijing Winter Olympics is 70 days, and the opening ceremony on February 4, 2022 is the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, the traditional Chinese festival, and I am looking forward to the Beijing Winter Olympics.

    Beijing and Zhangjiakou jointly hosted the Olympic Games, and Beijing became the first city to host both the Olympic Games and the Winter Olympics.

    East Asian neighbor Tokyo, Japan, hosted the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in 1964, the first time the Olympics were held in an Asian country. For the first time in eight years, the 1972 Winter Olympics were held in Sapporo, Japan. The 1996 Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan, returned to Japan after 26 years.

    The 2020 Tokyo Olympics in Japan were postponed to 21 due to the pandemic.

    Japan has hosted two Olympic Games and two Winter Olympics.

    South Korea hosted the Olympic Games in Seoul in 1988, and in 2018, it was the first time in 20 years that South Korea hosted the Winter Olympics.

    In 2008, the first Olympic Games in China's history were held in Beijing, and the first Winter Olympics in China's history in 2022 will open after 14 years.

    At present, there are only three Asian countries that have hosted the Olympic Games and Winter Olympics.

    1. Why are all countries vying to be the host country of the Olympic Games? How many days are the Olympics held?

    Hosting an Olympic Games requires hundreds of millions of dollars, and it requires not only that the host country have huge, modern sports facilities and super-first-class service facilities, but also that it must have advanced radio communication equipment. However, despite this, many countries around the world are still competing fiercely for the right to host the Olympic Games. Why is that?

    The reason is simple, hosting the Olympics can bring fame and fortune, especially profit. The 1988 Seoul Olympics organizers netted $500 million.

    The Olympics are generated in three main ways: exclusive photography rights fees paid by television companies, advertising fees and ticket revenues. The Los Angeles Olympics received $225 million in exclusive rights to photography from ABC.

    2. How many days will each Olympic Games be held?

    The 2nd Summer Olympic Games held in Paris, France in 1900 were co-organized with the Universal Exposition held in Paris in the same year, and they were mainly expositional, so the Games were held for a long time, from the opening on May 14 to the closing on October 28, it took more than five months, which can be called the "marathon Olympic Games".

    The schedule of the Games is lengthy and the facilities are not as good as they could be, and even most of the participants in the sports competitions only know that they are participating in the Olympics after the competitions. Coubertin was so angry that he resigned from the organizing committee, and said: There is a place in the world that is very cold to the Olympic Games, and this is Paris, France!

    However, the 2nd Olympic Games have not been held for a long time, in the history of the Olympics. The longest was the 4th Olympic Games held in London, England, in 1908, which ran from April 27 to October 31. Later, in order to put an end to this delay, the International Olympic Committee stipulated in the Olympic Charter that the duration of the Olympic Games should not exceed 16 days, and the Winter Olympics should be limited to 12 days.
