Ancient Olympics

That was summer. And it was when the festival in honour of Zeus was.

By that period it was an oligarchy, not a monarchy.

The first Olympic Games were he Summer Olympics of 1896. They were held in Athens, Greece and 14 countries participated. These countries were: Australia, Austria, Bulgaria, Chile, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britian, Greece, Hungary, Sweden, Switzerland, United States, and Italy

Olympic medals are awarded in a ceremony following the completion of each event, immediately following the certification of the results by the judges.

Although historical records are not completely clear, it is generally agreed that near the beginning of the 5th century B.C.E., democracy first appeared in Athens -- and perhaps this was its first appearance throughout the world. Under the leadership of Cleisthenes, the Athenians overcame yet another dictatorial ruler and then instituted a variety of reforms that placed power in the hands of citizens and otherwise instituted democratic practices throughout Athenian government.

The modern olympic games were invented by the frenchman Baron pierre de courbertin. The first ever olympics though, was in ancient greece!

It depends on what era of the Games that your talking about.

The Ancients Olympics were held at Olympia, hence the name Olympics.

And in the 1800s, when the Modern Olympics started; Athens was the first city to host the new Games.

One fact - there were no ancient Greek Olympic Equestrian Games

It depends upon the particular Olympics. There are summer and winter Olympics. Examples of races in the summer Olympics include competitions among the world's fastest runners and swimmers. Examples of races in the winter Olympics include competitions among the world's fastest skiers.

It's not really that anybody sat down and decided that women couldn't be olympic athletes, but in ancient Greece, as in much of ancient Europe, women were regarded as the less athletic of the two genders. Ancient civilizations conformed to strict gender roles, in which men competed to be the strongest, fastest, manliest, most eligible male, and women were expected to be the "property" of their husbands, fathers and sons. It was almost unthinkable that a women was even capable of competing in the events, and it never would have been allowed.

Only in (relatively) recent times, as gender roles are being challenged, have female athletes began to rise.
