The Olympic Games began in 776 B.C. in Olympia, Greece and pitted athletes from Greek city-states against one another every four years.The games ended in the 4th century A.D. but were revived in 1896. Today, more than 200 teams from around the world compete in summer and winter games in over 400 events. While the games are non-political, politics has sometimes surrounded them.Germany hosted the 1936 Olympics to portray Aryan superiority but was confounded when African American Jesse Owens won four gold medals and several Jewish athletes also won gold.And while athletes of the Soviet Union and the United States competed on the field, their governments pointed to their wins as a triumph of political ideology.By Hernan Perez.
