The Olympic Games began in ancient Greece around 776 BCE, held in Olympia to honor the god Zeus. These early Games featured athletic competitions like running, wrestling, and chariot racing. They were a major cultural and religious event, held every four years and paused during wartime. The modern Olympic Games were revived in 1896 by **Pierre de Coubertin**, aiming to promote international sportsmanship and unity. The first modern Games took place in Athens, Greece. Today, the Olympics occur every four years, alternating between Summer and Winter Games, with athletes from around the world competing in a wide range of sports. The Games continue to symbolize global unity, excellence, and the celebration of human achievement.
