The Greek Olympics were similar to our modern Olympics in the sense that people belonging to every nationality would have the chance to come togethor for a short period of time and take part in a little friendly competition. It was meant to show to all Greeks that through their mutual appreciation of athleticism, they were culturally unified. In a way it was a diplomatic gesture the same way it is today, because it showed that very distinct groups of people could find one thing in common which they could all hold respect for.
I Think That The Impact Is That If There Were No Modern Olympics There Would Be No Modern Olympics. Also, The Games From The Ancient Olympics Are In The Modern Olympics Today .. ! One Other Thing Is That EveryOne Still Talks About The Ancient Olympics Today And Its Just Soo Big Every Single Place Around The World .... ! .. <3
