A hundred years ago, Paris was the host of the 1924 Olympic Games, after The Great War. Playing is better than waging war; a playing place is better than a battlefield or cemetery. Let us gather together young people from all the nations under one roof, in a global village. They could all be sociable.  That was the idea, so they built a village of wood - many cabins for the athletes and their people. Very simple. The village was not intended to last. After the games the huts were demolished. There's the same friendship in 2024, but the village is different; the village is built for the future.
