Olympia is the biggest event in Greece. From 776 BC to 393 AD, it lasted more than 1 100 years, and the 292nd ancient Olympic Games was held in the ancient Greek city of Olympia. Professor Zhao Lin pointed out that the ancient Olympic Games was a competitive meeting of the upper class, and only men were allowed to participate, and women were not allowed to participate. These events are actually related to war. The original Olympic Games originated from offering sacrifices to gods, but imitating war in a civilized and peaceful way is both sacred and humanized, showing the limits, strength, wisdom and speed of human beings.

The Olympic Games came into being in the form of sacrifice against the background of war, but it also expressed the people's good wishes for peace. This contradictory and mutually restrictive relationship made the Olympic Games come into being and continue.
