National Games of the Republic of China

The National Games of the Republic of China (referred to as the National Games) is the largest comprehensive sports meeting in terms of scale and level in the Republic of China.[1][2] They take place every two years. The next games will take place in Yunlin County in 2025.

Some Olympic athletes compete in the National Games.[3]

It was first held in the second year of Xuantong in the late Qing Dynasty (1910). Before 1949, due to the turbulent situation, it was held at irregular intervals. By 1948, a total of 7 sessions had been held. During the mainland period of the Republic of China (1912-1949), six sessions were actually held (the first session was ratified after the Revolution of 1911).

The National Games of the Republic of China, currently held in the free areas of the Republic of China,[4] were restructured from the "Taiwan Provincial Games" (referred to as the Taiwan Provincial Games, Provincial Games) and the "Taiwan District Games" (referred to as the Taiwan District Games, District Games), participating delegations are based on municipalities, counties, and cities.
