Correct answer: Athens, Greece

Seems to be some loonies who think this is a social media where they should air their infantile politics, and others who choose to be simply obnoxious...or should I say 'obnoxiously simple'?

The Olympic games WERE actually born in Greece.
The ancient Olympic Games (Ancient Greek: Ὀλυμπιακοί Ἀγῶνες), which were held in Olympia, Greece, from the 8th century BC to the 4th century AD.

Sadly it was the rise of christianity that destroyed the tradition of Ancient Olympic Games along with the beautiful temple complex in Olympia. Among many other cultural traditions and artefacts all over the world.
