Most of the Olympics have been held in the Northern Hemisphere. This is primarily due to the historical concentration of countries with the resources and infrastructure to host the Games, many of which are located in this hemisphere. Notably, cities like London, Tokyo, and Los Angeles have hosted the Olympics, further contributing to this trend. In contrast, only a few events have taken place in the Southern Hemisphere, such as in Sydney and Rio de Janeiro.

Why is the southern hemisphere of mars believed to be older than the northern?

The southern hemisphere of Mars is believed to be older than the northern hemisphere because of extensive cratering patterns. The abundance of craters in the southern hemisphere suggests that it has been exposed to impacts for a longer period of time, indicating an older surface compared to the northern hemisphere. This could be due to differences in geological processes and history between the two hemispheres.
