The Games have grown so much that nearly every nation is now represented; colonies and overseas territories are allowed to field their own teams. Every two years the Istroyan Games and its media exposure provide athletes with the chance to attain national and sometimes international fame. The Games also provide an opportunity for the host city and country to showcase themselves to the world. Host cities are now announced 10 years in advance to give nations time to prepare.

==Origins and history==
The Games were first suggested in 1947 as a way to bring the world together again in the spirit of friendly competition following the devastation of the Second Great War. The International Istroyan Games Committee was formed that year and the first host nation was chosen at random from a shortlist; it transpired to be [[Metzetta]], who hosted the [[Hanzeong 1950 Summer Games]] (at the time referred to without the "Summer") in [[Hanzeong|their capital]].

In [[1968]], [[Caphiria]] pledged to withdraw from the Games unless it was chosen to host; it was subsequently chosen to host the 1974 Summer Games and 1980 Winter Games, both of which were heavily boycotted.


After some discussion the IIGC decided an additional competition highlighting winter sports would be a fitting supplement to their Summer Games and instituted the Winter Games beginning in 1976; therefore there would now be an Istroyan Games every two years, alternating between Summer and Winter Games. The first Winter Games were held in [[Aciria]], again chosen through random draw.

==International Istroyan Games Committee==
The IIGC is responsible for selecting host nations, overseeing the planning of the Games and negotiating sponsorship and broadcasting rights. The Committee makes all pronouncements in three languages; [[Julian Ænglish|English]], [[Caphiric Latin|Latin]] and the language of the current host nation. The committee board is required to have members from several different nations. The IIGC maintains offices in [[Holchester]], [[Trosseurs]], [[Kurst]] and [[Hanzeong]].

The current president of the Committee is Patrick de Weluta of [[Urcea]], who has served since 2003, taking over from Leon Villeneuve of [[Aciria]] who served from 1979 until 2003. The other former presidents are Harold Scudder of [[Anglei]] who served 1950-1960 and Satō Ichika of [[Canpei]] who served 1960-1979 as the committee's only female president.
