When were the first known Olympic games held?top

The first known Olympic Games were held in Olympia, Greece, in 776 BC. These Games were religious festivals that honored the Greek god Zeus. The Games included a variety of athletic competitions, such as running, wrestling, boxing, and chariot racing. The Games were held every four years, and they were considered to be one of the most important events in the Greek world.

The Olympic Games were discontinued in 393 AD by the Roman emperor Theodosius I. However, the Games were revived in 1896 by the French educator Pierre de Coubertin. The first modern Olympic Games were held in Athens, Greece. The Games have been held every four years since then, with the exception of 1916, 1940, and 1944, when they were canceled due to World War I and World War II.

The Olympic Games are now one of the most important sporting events in the world. They are a symbol of peace and unity, and they bring together athletes from all over the world to compete in a spirit of friendship and fair play.
