Answer:

Our modern Olympics were rooted from the ancient versions, notably in the fact that it was a gathering of athletic competition and entertainment. Today, our Olympics are still very similar as athletic competitive events, but we have many more developed sports and activities now. Both were competitive events, centered around sport and entertainment.

I hope this helps :)

Answer: The Ancient and Modern Olympics are similar in that both games have sporting events but the reasons they're held are different. The Ancient Olympics were part of a religious festival to the Greek God, Zeus, whereas the Modern Olympics are a sports competition for athletes from all countries of the world.
