The winter Olympics were begun in 1924 and were held in the same year as the summer games until the 1994 winter games in Lillehammer, Norway, when the alternating cycles began.
The 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, Spain, reflected a changed political landscape: the 172 participating nations and territories included the Unified Team (with athletes from 12 former Soviet republics), a reunited Germany, and South Africa, which was allowed to compete for the first time since 1960.
The Olympic games are competitions of individual athletes, not of nations, and the IOC does not keep national scores; however, the media of all nations report national standings according to one of two scoring systems.
The centerpiece of the 2008 SummerOlympics is the construction of the Beijing National Stadium, which began on December 24, 2003.
According to the International Olympic Committee, the emblem is the first of the modern Olympics to use red as the dominant colour, an important colour for the Chinese people throughout its history.
However, the entrance of Tuvalu (the remaining nation besides Marshall Islands that were not present at the 2004 SummerOlympics) is an open possibility provided that the country establishes a National Olympic Committee prior to IOC deadlines.
