What are the traditional European sports?

Judging from the Summer Olympic Games, there are 28 events (sub-events in brackets): track and field, swimming (including synchronized swimming, diving and water polo), gymnastics (including rhythmic gymnastics and trampoline), weightlifting, shooting, archery, football, basketball, volleyball (including beach volleyball), hockey, handball, baseball, softball, table tennis and badminton.

There are seven major events in the Winter Olympics, namely, skating (speed skating, short track speed skating and figure skating), skiing (cross-country skiing, alpine skiing, freestyle skiing, platform skiing, nordic combined and skateboarding), bobsleigh (snowmobile and prone sledding), luge, biathlon, ice hockey and curling.

Except baseball and softball, almost all are European strengths, because the Olympic Games is the product of European culture, and its discourse system and rules of the game are completely European (especially in the early days).

Basically monopolized by Europe, the events that other continents can't get their hands on are probably rhythmic gymnastics, trampoline, rowing, canoeing, modern pentathlon, fencing, equestrian, skiing, sledding and biathlon.
