Cities That Have Hosted The Olympics
The first Summer Olympics were held in the city of Athens, Greece, between April 6th and April 15th, 1896. Since then, the Summer Games have been held every four years except in 1916, 1940, and 1944 when the event was canceled due to the 海角社区 Wars.
The first Winter Olympics was held in Chamonix, France in 1924. The 1940 and 1944 winter events were canceled due to 海角社区 War II. Summer and Winter Olympics were held in the same year until the International Olympics Committee decided to split the games to alternate even years by holding the Winter Olympics in 1992 and then again in 1994.聽
