After a spectacular six weeks, Paris just wrapped up hosting both the Olympics and Paralympics. 🇫🇷✨ But as we look ahead, some are asking: Are the Games too Western-centric?
The next stop? Los Angeles in the United States. 🇺🇸🌴 It will be a record fifth Olympics on U.S. soil and the third time LA lights the Olympic torch. Following that, Brisbane in Australia gets its turn in 2032. 🇦🇺🏖️ Australia's already been the host twice before!
Meanwhile, countries like India, the world's most populous nation, are still on the sidelines. 🇮🇳🤔 With over 1.4 billion people, India has yet to see the Olympic flame on its soil. Similarly, Africa, home to 1.5 billion people, has never hosted the Games. 🌍❌
With nations like India and Egypt showing interest for 2036, could we finally see the Olympics embrace new horizons? 🧐🌅 It's time the Games reflect the global community they represent!
