The Modern Olympic Games were founded in the year 1894 by Baron Pierre de Coubertin, who was a French educationist and sought to promote international harmony and understanding through sporting competition. The great French man strongly believed in the Olympic ideal that even enemies could be united in sporting competition. The first Modern Olympics were finally held in 1896 and attracted athletes from fourteen nations of the world. At the first Modern Olympic Games in 1896 that were held in the place of birth of the philosophy of Olympism, Greece, the largest delegates came from the Greece, Germany, France and Great Britain.
