The Most Controversial Olympics

Most people have classified the 1936 Berlin Olympics as a separate Olympic Games because the Olympic Games have all the classic victories and retreats of the Olympic Games. Behind the scenes of the Olympic Games, most people did not see was the influence of the Nazi Party on every aspect of the Olympics except for the results. Nazi Germany decided to be a good country at the 1936 Olympic Games, but their efforts were overwhelmed by the people they tried to eliminate.

Though they were established as part of the vision of world peace, once the modern Olympic Games became a truly important international event, they also became a place for political conflict. The most controversial Olympics was the Berlin Olympic Games in 1936. After members of the International Olympic Committee knew that members of the International Olympic Committee would soon rule the country, the International Olympic Committee voted in 1931 to host the Olympic Games in Berlin. In the early 1930s, under the rule of the Nazis, Jewish athletes were banned from participating in the German team in 1936 who violated the Olympic Charter and demanded the 1936 Olympic boycott. The boycott movement failed. German officials persuaded Avery Brundage, head of US Olympic Committee (USOC), "to allow Jewish athletes to play for the German team". In fact, only two Jewish athletes were elected to the German Olympic team in 1936.

The boycott campaign for the 1936 Berlin Olympic began in the United States, Britain, France, Sweden, Czechoslovakia, the Netherlands. The discussion on the Olympic Games in 1936 was the most intense in America, and the United States traditionally dispatched one of the largest teams to the Olympics. Several boycott supporters support the anti-Olympics. The biggest one is the "People's Olympics" to be held in Barcelona, ​​Spain in the summer of 1936. As thousands of athletes began to arrive, they were canceled after the Spanish Civil War broke out in July 1936.
