    Many factors were vital influences upon the modern Olympic Games movement from 1892 to 2002. Political interests in the late 20th century were one such factor that shaped this movement. While the Olympics were originally intended to bring together the international community (which was the reason that Pierre de Coubertin wished to reinstate the games from ancient times), but they were also responsible for sparking intense competition between Olympians and their supporting countries as they strived to come out on top and flaunt their country’s power and fertility.

    Currently, only one sport dominates the entire globe, from Latin America, to Europe, to Asia and Africa, and North America. This sport is known here in America as soccer, and it’s been the world’s leading sport for a very long time now.
