Answer 2:The purpose is exactly the same as for Summer Olympics.
It is just different sportevents. that's all.

because the wait for the Olympics was long so they created summer and winter
The winter Olympic sports such as skiing and ice skating require cold weather (in order to have snow and ice) whereas summer Olympic sports are more easily played in warm weather, so it would be difficult to have all these different events in the same season. That's why there is both a summer Olympics and a winter Olympics.
