The 1928 summer Olympics was held in
Amsterdam, Netherlands. This was the first Olympic year that the torch was lit.
This was also the first time that the parade of nations took place with Greece
in the lead and ended with the host country.
The athletic events were held on a 400 meter track. This is now the
standard track size. The featured games were held on a 16 day schedule. With
many companies advertising, this is the first appearance of a Coca-Cola as a
sponsor.
