No one knows how the games started, but one of the stories mentions the great hero, Hercules. The king of Mycenae was jealous of Hercules for gan his strength, which made him more popular than the pied king himself. So in order to teach him a lesson, the king asked Hercules to do many difficult and dangerous tasks. He was sure that Hercules would die while trying to do them. However, Hercules was not only strong, but also very clever. He found out ways to complete all the twelve dangerous and difficult tasks. Zeus, the King of Gods, was so impressed that he took Hercules to Mount Olympus to live among the gods. He also began the Olympic Games in honour of Hercules. Many hundreds of years later, the Olympic Games were revived by a young Frenchman named Baron Pierre de Coubertin. He founded the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in 1894 leading to the first modern Games in Athens in 1896. He wanted people from all over the world to come together and compete in a friendly spirit. Since then, they have been staged every fourth year, except during World War I and World War II.
