  • Paris, France hosted the II Summer Games. This was the first time Paris hosted the games. The next time would be in 1924 for the summer Olympic games. France would also host 1924 Winter Olympic Games, 1968 Winter Olympics in Grenoble and the 1992 Winter Olympic Games in Albertville. The games were meant to be apart of the 1900 World Fair, which also took place in Paris. The games did not have an opening or closing ceremony. 24 Nations competed in 19 sports (95 events). During the Sorbonne (aka the University of Paris) conference of 1895, Baron de Coubertin (the founder of the IOC) suggested that the first Olympics should be held in Paris during the worlds fair. But the conference delegates were unwilling to wait that long. Instead, the first Olympics took place a year later during the 1896 Athens Games. The Greeks hoped that they could keep the olympics in their country but the IOC kept to their decision to hold the olympics in different countries but instead suggested to hold "Panhellenic Games" every two years between each olympics. This was not tried until 1906 with the Intercalated games
