GK QUESTIONS WITH ANSWER about Olympic
OLYMPIC GAMES
The Olympic Games are
considered to be the world's foremost sports competition with more than 200
nations participating. The Games are currently held biennially, with Summer and
Winter Olympic Games alternating,
meaning they each occur every four years.
Their creation was inspired by the ancient Olympic Games, which were athletic festivals held at the sanctuary of Zeus in Olympia, Greece.
Baron Pierre de Coubertin founded the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in 1894. The IOC has since become the governing body of the Olympic Movement, with the Olympic Charter defining its structure and authority.
Created by Pierre de Coubertin in 1914, the Olympic flag contains five interconnected rings on a white background. The five rings symbolize the five significant continents and are interconnected to symbolize the friendship to be gained from these international competitions. The rings, from left to right, are blue, yellow, black, green, and red. The Olympic flag was first flown during the 1920 Olympic Games.
There are several
Olympic rituals and symbols, such as the Olympic flag and torch, as well as the
opening and closing ceremonies. Over 13,000 athletes compete at the Summer and
Winter Olympics in 33 different sports and nearly 400 events. The first,
second, and third place finishers in each event receive f Olympic medals: gold,
silver, and bronze, of respectively.
In 1921, Pierre de
Coubertin, founder of the modern Olympic Games, borrowed a Latin phrase from
his friend, Father Henri Didon, for the Olympic motto: Citius, Altius, Fortius
("Swifter, Higher, Stronger"). During the opening ceremonies, one
athlete recites the oath on behalf of all the athletes. The Olympic oath was
first taken during the 1920 Olympic Games by Belgian fencer Victor Boin.
Women were first allowed to participate in 1900 at the second modern Olympic Games.
