The History of the Olympic Games

Long ago ancient Greeks often waged

wars.
Small states suffered and lost much even
if they did not take any side and stayed out
of wars. The ruler of such a small state, Elis,
wanted to live in peace with all neighbours.
He was a good diplomat because his negotiations
were successful and Elis was recognized a neutral
state. To celebrate this achievement, he organized
athletic games

In the beginning this feast lasted one day, but
later a whole month was devoted to it.
All wars and feuds were stopped by special
heralds who rode in all directions of Greece.
The games were held every four years in Olympia
on the territory of Elis. The first games
which later were called the Olympic Games were
held about a thousand years before our era.

inhabited continents of the world rings on a white background. The five rings represent and symbolize universal brotherhood. The six colours, the white of the background and the blue, yellow, black, green, and red of the rings, represent the nations of the world, since every national flag contains at least one of these colours. The ceremonial embroidered flag, by the Olympic rules, must reside in the principal municipal building of the host city until the next Games.

Winter Sports
   Usually, when talking about winter sports we have

in mind all sports having to do with ice and snow.    But some sports such as hockey and figure skating, should be considered summer sports.    They are played all over the world on artificial ice rinks.    It is interesting to participate in speed races, but it is much more interesting to watch speed races.    Hockey is played on a rink forty metres long by six players on each of two teams.    It is very interesting, fast, and dynamic game.    It is played with a puck and long straight sticks with an angle at the bottom. The team that scores the most goals wins.    One more exciting kind of winter sports is ski-jumping.
