Why was chosen Amsterdam?In 1916 the Olympic Games were cancelled due to
World War I. In 1919 the Netherlands Olympic Committee abandoned the proposal of Amsterdam in favour of their support of the nomination of Antwerp as host city for the 1920 Summer Olympics. In 1921 Paris was selected for the 1924 Summer Olympics on the condition that the 1928 Summer Olympics would be organized in Amsterdam. The decision was disputed by the Americans, but their request to allocate the 1928 Summer Olympics to Los Angeles was without success. Los Angeles was finally selected as host city for the 1932 Summer Olympics.

HighlightsFor the first time, the parade of nations started with
Greece, which holds the origins of the Olympics, and ended with the host country, a tradition which continues today.
For the first time, the Olympic Flame was lit during the Olympics. The torch relay, however, would not occur until the 1936 Summer Olympics.
These games were the first to feature a standard schedule of 16 days, which is still followed. Previously, competition had been stretched out over several months.
