Paris, 1900 Olympic Games

The 1900 Olympic Games were held in Paris, France. These second modern Games were overshadowed by, and incorporated into, the Paris Exposition. 1,319 men from 26 countries competed in 75 events, although it was not entirely clear - even to some of the participants - which events were actually part of the Olympics.
