T h e 1 9 7 2 S u m m e r
Olympics were the second
Summer Olympics to be
held in Germany, after the
1936 Games in Berlin,
which had taken place
under the Nazi regime.
Mindful of the connection,
t h e W e s t G e r m a n
Government was eager to
take the opportunity of
the Munich Olympics to
present a new, democratic
and optimistic Germany
to the world, as shown by
the Games' official motto,
"Die Heiteren Spiele", or
"the Happy Games."
The opposition between
the free world and the
western block turned to
the advantage of the
second but. USSR won 99
medals against 94 United
States. DDR won 66
medals against 40 for
West Germany.

The Games were largely
overshadowed by what
has come to be known as
the "Munich massacre".

organization broke into

took nine Israeli athletes,
coaches and officials

hostages who resisted
were killed in the first
moments of the break-in;
the subsequent standoff
in the Olympic Village
lasted for almost 18
hours.
