Why Are The Olympics Held Every 4 Years?

The Olympics are held every four years owning to the length of Olympiad which is four years. Olympiad was a method of keeping time in the ancient Greece. Later on it was used for the Olympics in both the ancient and the modern times. The Olympics were first held in the modern times in 1896 after it was discontinued in the medieval times. Since then it is held every four years with the exception of the time during the world war.
