After all, I want give to my public some info about the "Official Olympic Games"- Take a look... Don't be lazy :I (hehe... I just kidding)
Origins:
The Ancient Olympic Games were religious and athletic festivals held every four years at the sanctuary of Zeus in Olympia, Greece. Competition was among representatives of several city-states and kingdoms of Ancient Greece. These Games featured mainly athletic but also combat sports such as wrestling and the pankration, horse and chariot racing events. It has been widely written that during the Games, all conflicts among the participating city-states were postponed until the Games were finished. This cessation of hostilities was known as the Olympic peace or truce.
Today:
This games are celebrated each four yeaes since 1896. All the countries take a site in the "Olimpic Games" and compete to the best places in the totally of the deportive disciplines, from cycling to tennis (for give a example). The last "Olympic Games" were in London, England (2012).
