Olympic Games
The modern Olympic Games are the world's leading international sporting events, featuring summer and winter sports competitions with thousands of athletes from around the world participating in various competitions. The Games are held every four years, with the Summer and Winter Olympics alternating every two years, and are governed by the International Olympic Committee (IOC), which was founded by Baron Pierre de Coubertin in 1894. The Olympic Movement has evolved over the years, introducing new events such as the Winter Olympics, Paralympic Games, and Youth Olympic Games, and adapting to economic, political, and technological advancements. The Games have grown to include nearly every nation, with over 14,000 athletes competing in 40 sports and 448 events at the 2020 Summer Olympics and 2022 Winter Olympics.learn more on wikipedia
