As the Olympics have progressed through the 20th and 21st centuries, they've been modified numerous times. In what year were the first modern Olympic Games held?
Answer 1896
Greek enthusiasm for resurrecting the Olympic Games dates all the way back to 1821, when Greece declared independence from the Ottoman Empire. However, the inaugural Games under the supervision of the IOC weren't staged until 1896, when they were hosed at Athens' Panathenaic Stadium.
