People come from different countries to participate in the Olympic Games. Many of these countries are on different continents, however the athletes represent their country not their continent.
There are many languages that people participating in the Olympics speak. It just depends on what countries these people come from. Some of the most common languages are:French (Will be the language that the ceremonies are conducted in)EnglishMandarinOther forms of Chinese

there are criteria for each sport to be an olympic sport....i don't know all of them but one is that it must be played/practised in 4 continents!! that is why lacrosse is not an olympic sport....because it is not played in 4 continents!! Anyway...rowing is an awesome sport, perhaps the best to watch in the olympics...it totally deserves to be an olympic sport!!
Casting a mental eye around the globe, I come up with North America, Australia, and Antarctica (which has no countries at all, only territorial claims).
