An Olympiad is the period of four years which starts with a summer Olympic Games. Each Olympiad is counted with Roman numerals, and the year of the Games cannot be changed (although Games have been skipped out, as in 1916 during the First World War). The current Olympic Games in Beijing will be the Games of the XXVIV Olympiad.
