The Greek myth "Hercules" was the first to start the Olympic Games, and the oldest records he obtained in these games were in 776 BC. AD, on the plain of Mount Olympia. These Olympic Games were held every four years, and for more than 1,000 years, the Romans worked to stop these games in 394 BC. The Greeks saw that the games they play are of great importance, and these games are an embodiment of the ideals of the Greeks, who have the mind, soul and body. There is nothing to stop these games, even if there are wars. If a country goes through any kind of war and the time of the games has come, they stop it. Fifteen centuries later, the French Baron Piper Coubertin came to revive the idea of the Olympic Games. This international conference was held in Paris. It consists of fifteen countries. Everyone agreed to the idea of reviving the Olympic Games, and that they be held every four years. Two years after this conference, the Olympic Games were held.
