The first Olympics were held in Olympia, a Greek City State. The games were held after every four years, a tradition that remains today although more days have been added to the event to accommodate the many games of modern Olympics. The first Olympics were held in 776 BC as part of religious functions in honor of Zeus, the god of god. Although many of the games were barbaric in nature, most of games played in ancient Olympics have evolved and new ones have been invented. The Olympic games are some of the most attended global events to date. Joseph Kiprop August 14 2019 in Society
