This text is a continuation of a series called “Olympic Sports”. The period focused here ranges from the Moscow Games in 1980 to Vancouver in 2010. It is interesting to note that the last Summer and Winter Games that took place in the same year, took place in 1992. After this period, the Winter and Summer Games began to be interspersed every two years, and are hosted by different cities.
