General knowledge of the Olympics is urgently needed.

1 The full name of the Olympics is the Olympic Games.

2 The Olympic Games originated in Athens, Greece. The Greeks established in 776 B.C. that the games would be held every four years at Olympia.

During the Games, all the Greek competitors and the people in the neighborhood gathered in Olympia, a scenic town in the south of Greece

. When the first Olympic Games were held here in 776 B.C.

, the Dorian Clos won the 192-27 meter sprint. He became

the first person to win the first event of the International Olympic Games. Later, the Ancient Greek

Games grew in size and became a show of national spirit. The winners of the games were awarded wreaths of laurel, wild olives and palms. Over a period of 1,170 years, starting in 776 B.C. and ending in

394 A.D.

293 ancient Olympic Games were held. They were banned by the Roman Emperor in 394 AD.

From 1875 to 1881, the German Curtius excavated

excavated artifacts at the Olympic site, which aroused worldwide interest. For this reason, the French educator Pierre de Gu

Baidan believed that the restoration of the tradition of the ancient Greek Olympic Games is

of great significance to the promotion of the development of international sports. Under his advocacy and active campaign, in June 1894, the first International Sports Congress was held in

Paris. The International Sports Congress decided to call the world's comprehensive sports

games the Olympic Games, and in April 1896 in the Greek capital of Athens

held the first modern Olympic Games to be held once every four years, rotating among member states. By 19

92, 25 Olympic Games had been held.

Attached to add:

The origin and development of the Olympic Games

One: the rise of the modern Olympic movement in the era of capitalist industry in Europe, but its origins can be traced back to the Olympic Games in Ancient Greece, the ancient Olympic Games every four years, from the first Olympic Games in 776 BCE with written records to the year 393 CE, *** held 293 sessions over a period of 1169 years, after the emergence, development and decline of several classes.

First, the natural environment of ancient Greece and the formation of athletic sports practices.

Secondly, the competition programs in the early years of the Olympic Games also reflect the development of the relationship between war and the ancient Olympic Games. During the 500-year period from 776 AD, the Olympic Games gradually expanded from a single race to a comprehensive games with wrestling, mixed martial arts, boxing, four-horse chariot racing, carriage racing, jousting, horse racing, and pentathlon events, etc. These events, mostly related to military skills, reflect the role of war as a driving force in the development of Olympic Games events. Although the events of the Ancient Olympic Games had an obvious military stigma, the Games themselves were a great event for the entire Greek nation to come together. Although conflicts between city-states were frequent, they were also very closely linked, especially since the 8th century BC, with the rise of the ancient Greek colonial movement, which formed a circle of Greek civilization in the Mediterranean region.

Thirdly, the religious practices of ancient Greece and the formation of the Olympic Games model.

The ancient Olympic Games were a pan-Greek religious celebration, characterized by the following three features: first, the worship of the gods of Mount Olympus; second, a unique sacrificial system; and third, a wealth of religious myths and legends.

Fourth, the prosperity and decline of the ancient Olympic Games.

Can be roughly divided into three stages, the first stage (8th century B.C.----- 6th century B.C.) development of the various Greek city states to participate in the event, the second stage (6th century B.C.---- 4th century B.C.) for the heyday of the slavery of the ancient Greek city-states, the ancient Olympic Games reached its peak. The third stage (4th century B.C.----- A.D. 4th century) Ancient Greece was conquered by the Macedonian and Roman empires, and the Ancient Olympic Games entered a period of decline.

Two: the motivation of the Olympic movement:

The need for the internationalization of sports development, the second half of the 19th century, with the development of the international political and economic situation, the development of modern sports there are two obvious tendencies. One is the rapid development of竟技运动, and the second is the internationalization trend of sports, the first international single sports organization in 1881 ---- International Gymnastics Federation was established. With the expansion of international sports contacts, the establishment of a comprehensive international sports exchanges on the stage, the establishment of an international sports organization to coordinate the activities of the single organizations to play a management role, has become the urgent need of the times.

Finally in 1893, according to the suggestion of Coubertin, the French Federation of Athletic Associations held an international sports conference. to discuss the revival of the Olympic Games.

In 1894 the International Congress of Physical Education and Sport opened in Paris at the Sorbonne Theological Seminary. And adopted a resolution on an important document ---- (Revival of the Olympic Games). Since the first Olympic Games were to be held in 1896 in Athens, Greece, the birthplace of the ancient Olympic Games, Vikelas, a Greek, was to be the first president, with Coubertin as secretary general. The General Assembly decided in which country's major city the Games would be held every four years.
