Olympic Games

 They are international sports events that include summer and winter sports competitions, in which athletes of both sexes participate in different competitions and represent different delegations from all over the world. The Olympic Games are the world's premier sports competition with the participation of more than 200 countries. Where the event is currently organized every two years in even years, alternating summer and winter games after both competitions were held every four years, and in the same year until 1992. The four-year period between the years of the tournaments is called the Olympics.

Its creation was inspired by the ancient Olympic Games that were held in Olympia, Greece from the 8th century BC to the 4th century AD. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) was established by Baron Pierre de Coubertin in 1894 through the Olympic Congress, which led to the organization of the first modern Olympic Games in Athens in 1896. The IOC is the governing body of the Olympic movement, and the Olympic Charter defines its structure and authority.

 The development of the Olympic movement during the 20th and 21st centuries has led to many changes in the Olympic Games. These modifications include the creation of the Winter Olympics for snow and ice sports, the Paralympic Games for athletes with special needs, the Youth Olympic Games for athletes aged 14-18, and the five Continental Games (Pan American, African, Asian, European, and Pacific) And the World Games for sports that are not included in the schedule of the Olympic Games.
