How many years separated the 1936 Berlin Olympics from the next one to take place?

ChewyGazelle68623, ALL wars cause upheaval and destruction.

Jesse Owens was an amazing athlete and human being. As for the 1936 games and Hitler, I have one word for him: Schadenfreude.

the war caused alot of upheavals everywhere!!

The Olympic Committee picked Germany and Japan to host the 1936 and 1940 games. Wow!

Dayrell, These decisions are made long before the actual events, so it was likely the Olympic Committee made their choice in the 1920’s when no-one could have foreseen the death and destruction of WWII.

QuizzMaster I am also blown away by the Olympic Committee’s DECISION to grant both Germany n JAPAN WOW! 😅
