About the 2012 Games: The Summer Olympic Games of 2012 will take place in London, England between July 27 and August 12, 2012. London will become the first city to officially host the modern Games for the third time, having previously done so in 1908 and 1948. The focus of the London Games will be the Olympic Park in East London, which will house the new sport venues. The Park is located in the Lower Lea Valley – an area of great untapped potential. The main venues – for the ceremonies, athletics, swimming, cycling, plus the fencing, hockey, handball, and the basketball arenas – will be easily accessible through a network of footbridges and walkways. The Park will be designed to ensure that visitors always fell part of the Games, whether they are watching the 100 meters final, strolling along the river edge or sitting in front of one of the big screens relaying live Games action throughout the Park.

London (ⁱ/ˈlʌndən/) is the capital city of England and the United Kingdom, the largest metropolitan area in the United Kingdom, and the largest urban zone in the European Union by most measures.^{[note 1]} Located on the River Thames, London has been a major settlement for two millennia, its history going back to its founding by the Romans, who called it Londinium.^[4] London’s ancient core, the City of London, largely retains its square-mile medieval boundaries. Since at least the 19th century, the name London has also referred to the metropolis developed around this core.^[5] The bulk of this conurbation forms the London region^[6] and the Greater London administrative area,^{[7][note 2]} governed by the elected Mayor of London and the London Assembly.^[8]

England (ⁱ/ˈɪŋɡlənd/) is a country that is part of the United Kingdom.^[6][7][8] It shares land borders with Scotland to the north and Wales to the west; the Irish Sea is to the north west, the Celtic Sea to the south west, with the North Sea to the east and the English Channel to the south separating it from continental Europe. Most of England comprises the central and southern part of the island of Great Britain in the North Atlantic. The country also includes over 100 smaller islands such as the Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Wight.

The area now called England was first inhabited by modern humans during the Upper Palaeolithic period, but it takes its name from the Angles, one of the Germanic tribes who settled during the 5th and 6th centuries. England became a unified state in AD 927, and since the Age of Discovery, which began during the 15th century, has had a significant cultural and legal impact on the wider world.^[9] The English language, the Anglican Church, and English law—the basis for the common law legal systems of many other countries around the world—developed in England, and the country’s parliamentary system of government has been widely adopted by other nations.^[10] The Industrial Revolution began in 18th-century England, transforming its society into the world’s first industrialised nation.^[11] England’s Royal Society laid the foundations of modern experimental science.^[12]
