The Olympics were first started by the Greek and the records of the first Olympia record back to 776BC in Olmypia, Greece. The records of history show that Olympics were held regularly till 393 AD and the rule was that Olmpics celebration had to mean that warring nations stop their wars and peace prevailed during the celebrations.Interest in reviving the Olympic Games proper was first shown by the Greek poet and newspaper editor Panagiotis Soutsos in his poem "Dialogue of the Dead" in 1833 and this dream was then fulfilled by Evangelos Zappas, who sponsored the first modern international Olympic Games in 1859. The International Olympic Committee was founded in 1894 on the initiative of a French nobleman, Pierre Frédy, Baron de Coubertin. The IOC has become the heart of the "Olympic Movement," a conglomeration of sporting federations that are involved in the organization of the Games. All said and done, except for 3 exceptions, one during World War I and two during World War II, the Olympics have brought with them a spirit of Internation Competition with Peace.
