Olympic Games Olympic games were held to honor the god Zeus. In ancient Greece, at the beginning of the Olympic games, they would light the altar of Zeus. At the beginning of the modern Olympic games, they light the Olympic flame Many countries had sport competitions But, the Greek Olympics are one of the few that still happen today.

Continue…. Olympics The Olympic games feature 2,600 athletes but only a few hundreds play. Only men can compete in the Olympics.
