Excuse me, what's the difference between the Olympic Games and the Asian Games?

First of all, it should be said that the Olympic Games is attended by the whole world, while the Asian Games is only attended by countries in the Asian region. Secondly, introduce the Olympic Games and the Asian Games:

Olympic Games (Greek: ο λ υ μ π ι α κ ο? Αγ? νε? , referred to as the Olympic Games or the Olympic Games, is an international sports meeting sponsored by the International Olympic Committee and held every four years. The Olympic Games originated in ancient Greece and got its name because it was held in Olympia. At the end of 19th century, Baron Coubertin of France founded the real modern Olympic Games. Since 1896, the Olympic Games have been held every four years (it was interrupted three times in two world wars, in 1916, 194 and 1944 respectively), and the duration of the Games is no more than 16 days. Since the Winter Olympic Games was established in 1924, the Olympic Games are customarily called "Summer Olympic Games". The Olympic Games has now become a symbol of peace and friendship. Olympic Games events include: track and field, basketball, football, volleyball, swimming (including diving, water polo and synchronized swimming), hockey, gymnastics, weightlifting, cycling, wrestling, judo, shooting, archery, fencing, rowing, rowing, sailing windsurfing, equestrian, boxing, handball, modern pentathlon, tennis and table tennis. In addition to official events, the IOC also authorized the host country to list one or three of the more popular non-Olympic official events in the country as exhibition events of the current Olympic Games, and other countries can also send teams to participate. As an informal competition, the winners will not be awarded medals.

The full name of the Asian Games is the Asian Games, which is a large-scale regional comprehensive games recognized by the International Olympic Committee and sponsored by the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA). It is not only the largest and highest-level comprehensive sports meeting in Asia, but also represents the sports level of Asia as a whole. The Asian Games were formerly known as the Far East Games and the West Asia Games. It is held every four years, alternating with the Olympic Games, with a duration of 16 days. The 1st Asian Games was originally scheduled to be held in New Delhi, India in February 1949, but it was postponed to 1951 for some reason, and it was held for 13 times in 21.

Most Asian Games events are Olympic Games events, but unlike the Olympic Games, there are strict regulations. Except for some widely developed events, such as track and field, swimming, basketball, volleyball, football, etc., the host country can appropriately co-opt according to its own conditions and sports technical level.

In p>1912, the American directors of the YMCA of China, Japan and the Philippines initiated and organized the establishment of the Far East Sports Association, and the first Far East Games was held in Manila, the Philippines in 1913. By 1934, the Far East Games had been held for 1 times. Initially, it was held every two years. Later, it was held alternately with the Olympic Games, and it was changed from the eighth session in 1927 to every four years. At the beginning, only China, Japan and the Philippines participated, and from the ninth session, India, Indonesia and Vietnam also joined in.

The Far East Games consisted of seven events: track and field, swimming, football, basketball, baseball, tennis and volleyball, which represented the highest level of competitive sports in Asia at that time and made positive contributions to the development of early sports in Asia. China won the football championship in the 9th Far East Games. In 1934, China announced its withdrawal from the Far East Games because of the Japanese invasion of China and its insistence on bringing its so-called "Manchukuo" into the Far East Games. After that, the Far East Sports Association disintegrated due to China's withdrawal, and the Far East Games also died.

in p>1934, under the financing of Indian sports leader Dr. Gurusandi, the first West Asian Games was held in New Delhi. The participating countries were India, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), Afghanistan and Pakistan, and there were hockey, basketball, track and field events. The Second West Asian Games, originally scheduled to be held in Pakistan four years later, was suspended due to the outbreak of World War II. After the end of World War II, people in Asian countries are eager to maintain a peaceful environment and promote unity, friendship and cultural exchanges between people in various countries and regions, and their desire to participate in international sports competitions is very urgent.

During the 14th Olympic Games in London in July, 1948, sports people from China and the Philippines had frequent contacts, planning to resume the Far East Games, and asked Asian countries participating in this Olympic Games to discuss it. Guru Sandy, Indian member of the International Olympic Committee and Indian sports leader, believes that merely restoring the Far East Games is not enough to reflect the sports level and unity spirit of Asia as a whole, and advocates the establishment of an intercontinental sports meeting-the Asian Games, which includes all Asian countries. To this end, he visited Asian sports delegations coming to London to participate in the Olympic Games, and invited representatives from 13 countries and regions including China, South Korea and the Philippines to hold the first preparatory meeting on the establishment of the Asian Games Federation. The meeting discussed and adopted India's proposal to establish the Asian Games Federation, and recommended China, South Korea, India and the Philippines to draft relevant documents and articles of association for the Asian Games. It was also confirmed that the first Asian Games would be held in New Delhi, India in February 1949. Later, due to domestic reasons in India, the sports meeting could not be held as scheduled.

on February 12 -13, 1949, India invited representatives of sports organizations from the Philippines, Myanmar, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Thailand and other countries to meet in New Delhi, India. At the meeting, the "Asian Games Federation" (renamed as "Asian Olympic Council" after 1982) was announced and the charter drafted by China, India, the Philippines and South Korea was formally adopted. The representatives of India, Afghanistan, Myanmar, Pakistan and the Philippines who attended the meeting immediately signed the membership and became the basic members of the Asian Games Federation. All the delegates unanimously agreed to adopt "Forever Forward" as the slogan of the Asian Games. The meeting elected Singh of India as the chairman and Vangas of the Philippines as the vice-chairman. The meeting decided that the Asian Games, which is held every four years, should be held in the middle of the two Olympic Games, and stipulated that the competition time should be 12-16 days, with 2 events. The host country can increase or decrease the number of events as appropriate, but generally there should be no less than 11 events, with track and field, swimming and art exhibition as compulsory events and contents. The meeting also decided that the 1st Asian Games would be held in New Delhi, India in 195. As the main sponsor of the Asian Games, Dr Sandy of India is called "the father of the Asian Games".

The Asian Games Federation is basically modeled after the International Olympic Committee. The International Olympic Committee recognizes the Asian Games as the official games in Asia. The task of the Asian Games Federation is to hold the Asian Games and the Winter Asian Games on schedule. The Asian Games Federation was reorganized into the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) during the 9th Asian Games in 1982.
