It is not an easy job to plan the Olympics. It is a lot of work to hold the Olympics in a city. Just ask the people of Atlanta, Georgia. In 1996, athletes from over 100 countries participated in Atlanta. People were sent from newspapers, radio, and television stations to cover the games. Changes had to be made all over the city. Athletes and coaches needed places to stay. Fans and the media needed somewhere to stay, too. A lot of healthy food had to be ready for the participants. Teams of people had to make the food. Other teams cleaned up after people ate. Visitors wanted to shop and eat at nice places. Places had to be built for different events.

The first modern-day Olympics were very different. They were held in 1896. Only thirteen countries came to the Olympics in Athens, Greece. Ten athletes competed for the United States. However, we won nine out of ten events! This started America's tradition of winning a lot of Olympic events.
