The '''Olympics''' are a recurring international gathering where players compete in minigames for medals. The event is loosely modelled after the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_Games real-life Olympic Games]. Each had multiple nations compete and saw a multitude of athletic and non-athletic events held, for friendly international competition.
The [[First Olympics]] on [[CivClassic 2.0]] were held in [[Yoahtl]] across five evenings from in June 2018. Olympics occurred regularly through 2019 in [[The Commonwealth]]<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/aa1auv/the_olympic_torch_arrives_in_taliesin_and_an/eco69n7/</ref>, [[Gensokyo]]<ref>https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SreDiHuo4YPH_ZNrA0BTiMMkHUhFpNG81g52E0d_QrQ/edit</ref> and [[Mount Augusta (CivClassic 2.0)|Mount Augusta]]<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/cqakdk/mta_summer_olympics_have_begun_dont_miss_this/</ref><ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/cl5vg8/olympics_4_on_mount_olympus_most_august/</ref>.

== Hosts ==
So far, during CivClassics there have been six Olympic Games, all set in different nations. The first four Olympic Games were organized in association with the Olympic Committee created by [[WackyAki]] and [[Feathercrown]] of [[Yoahtl]]. The committee planned to have [[Columbia]] host the fifth Olympic Games, however due to the outbreak of the [[Columbian Bush War]] and the involvement of the [[Infinity War]] this never happened. [[Icenia]] organized the Fifth Olympics themselves in May 2021 without the Olympic Committee's involvement but has been widely regarded as the successor of the Olympic Games in CivClassic. Columbia were finally able to run an Olympics, hosting the sixth and last Olympics on CivClassics, independent of the Olympic Committee, not long before the server was shut down.<ref name=":0" />
