In my personal opinion the Olympics. Is a way to Incorporate and interconnect the world through athletics. It is nice to watch the best of the best compete for something greater than the themselves, their country. Becoming an Olympic athlete in some countries can also provide for a better life than might have been provided. In most countries athletes are treated with the upmost respect and have access to many goods and services a common citezen. In some countries peopele train for years to make the cut of an Olympic athlete because they know that life as an athlete is better than the ones they are living now. In countries such as China, India, Iran, Iraq, Brazil, etc. Parents send children to acadamies or athletic centers instead of school to develope their talents as athlets so that their children can have a better life.
