The Olympic Games as we know them today have a long history that dates back to Antiquity. It all started in Greece, in the Peloponnese, about 3,000 years ago.
According to historical records, the first ancient Olympic Games can be traced back to 776 BC. They were dedicated to the Olympian gods and were staged on the ancient plains of Olympia. The games continued for nearly 12 centuries, until Emperor Theodosius decreed in 393 A.D. that all such "pagan cults" be banned.
The city of Vancouver was elected to be the Host City of the XXI Olympic Winter Games in 2010. This was done at the 115th IOC Session in Prague on 2 July 2003.
Tickets for the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games are now on sale, and fans have a number of different options for getting tickets depending on where they live.
