On the eve of the end of World War II, the International Olympic Committee selected London as the venue for the 13 Olympic Games. But this Olympic Games was also cancelled because of the war. The two century wars in this century have made the three Olympic Games originally planned to be held in 19 16, 1940 and 1944 blank. People call these years the darkest years in the history of the Olympic movement. It ruined the Olympic Games and stifled the development of world sports.

1940 12th Olympic Games

12 The Olympic Games were cancelled due to World War II. The competition was originally scheduled to be held in Tokyo, and it was also held outside Europe and America for the first time. Due to the arrogance of Japanese imperialism at that time, it occupied the northeast of China for nine years, and even invaded China on a large scale after the Lugouqiao Incident in 1937. This act of undermining peace and occupying other countries is a serious violation of the Olympic spirit. Although the International Olympic Committee has put pressure on the Japanese Olympic Organizing Committee, I hope that Japan

The Olympic Games could have been held in 1940. However, under the pressure of the military, the Japanese Olympic Committee announced in July 1938 that it could not host the Olympic Games.

1938 On September 3rd, the International Olympic Committee awarded Finland the right to host the Games. However, due to the outbreak of World War II, Finland gave up the right to host the Olympic Games on 10/0/0/0. Subsequently, wars spread all over Europe and the world, and 12 Olympic Games aborted.
