The Olympic Symbol consists of five intertwined rings and represents the unity of five inhabited continents (America, Asia, Africa, Europe and
Australasia). The coloured version of the rings Ȃ Blue, Yellow, Black, Green and Red Ȃ over a white field forms the Olympic flag. The flag was adopted in
1914 but flown for the first time only at 1920 Summer Olympics in Antwerp, Belgium.
The Olympic Motto is ǲCitius, Altius, Fortiusǳ a latin expression meaning ǲFaster, Higher, Stronger. The Olympic mascot, an animal or a human figure
representing the Cultural heritage of host country was introduced in 1968. In the opening ceremony parade, Greece is the first country to enter the ring
in order to honour the origins of Olympics. Nations then enter the stadium alphabetically according to host countryǯs chosen language, with the host
countryǯs athletes entering last.
The Summer Olympics consists of 26 sports, 30 disciplines and nearly 300 events, while Winter Olympics features 15 sports. 2012 Summer Olympics

Russia in 2014, which will be the first time this nation has hosted.

have played host to Olympics games twice and with 2012 Olympics being held at London, London will become the first city to host Olympic Games
thrice.
The first Olympic athlete to test positive for performance-enhancing drugs was Hans-Gunnar Lijenwall, a Swedish athlete at 1968 Summer Olympics
at Mexico City.
Olympic games are held every two years, with Summer and Winter games alternating one after the another. So, actually Summer Olympics are held
after every 4 years and same holds for Winter Olympics.
Last Summer Olympics was held in 2008 in Beijing in which participants from 204 countries took part, while the most recent Winter Olympics was
held in 2010 in Vancouver (Canada).

surpassing 7 gold medals won by USA swimmer Mark Spitz in 1972 Munich Olympics.
Which Olympic athlete has won maximum medals at Olympic game?
Alexander Dityatin of Russia first won 8 medals at 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow. And then Michael Phelps of US won 8 gold medals in
Athens Olympics in 2004 ( 6 gold & 2 bronze) and 8 gold medals at Beijing Olympics in 2008, thus equalling the record of winning maximum number of
medals in Olympic.
Which Olympic athlete has won maximum number of medals in all the Olympics games played?
Soviet Gymnast Larissa Latynina has won 18 medals (9 gold) over three Olympics and second in the list is Michael Phelps with 16 medals in two
Olympics.

India first participated in Olympics in 1900, with a lone athlete (Norman Pritchard) winning two silver medals in athletics (200m race and 200m
hurdles).[International Olympic Committee regards the medals won by Norman Pritchard as credited to India, but International committee credits it to

competed at Winter Olympics since 1964.
