The Olympics is the epitome of sports events and is organized to promote sports in every part of the world. The event is based on the values of friendship, excellence, and respect. Its symbol is of five interlaced rings in blue, black, yellow, green, and red, symbolizing the union of the five parts of the world that meet through sports events. Pierre de Coubertin founded the Olympic games.
The year 2021 revived the spirit of sports after a one-year delay of the Olympics due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Tokyo Olympics 2020 was scheduled from 23rd July 2021 to 8th August 2021 in Tokyo, Japan.
