A few words that immediately enthrall and bring to mind many images. The elegance and beauty of sport, the medals, the world records, the suspense of watching our team or nation play, the pleasure we feel when a sportsman or sportswoman of our own nationality wins or performs a masterstroke. So many moods and feelings that pierce our hearts when watching the Games and make them a beautiful interplanetary event. The Olympic games are noble. If we look a bit at their history, the Games goes back to Antiquity and takes its roots in Greece in the Peloponnese, about 3,000 years ago. Sports competitions organized in Olympia were held every four years and took the name of Olympic Games. Researchers and economists have come to consensus on how much money a nation may generate from hosting the Games more than a century after Pierre De Coubertin conceived of the first modern Olympic Games. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has made it clear that it prefers industrialized nations to host the Olympic Games during the XXth century. However, at the beginning of the twenty-first century and with the advent of new developing nations, the IOC was forced to diversify the host cities and nations so that these emerging superpowers might also profit from the organization of such a major event. However, this modification brought new difficulties in terms of what people expect from the IOC.
