Navzdory omezen\u00fdm zdroj\u016fm byly olympijsk\u00e9 hry v roce 1948 ohromn\u00fdm \u00fasp\u011bchem.

Hry tak\u00e9 uk\u00e1zaly s\u00edlu sportu spojovat n\u00e1rody a vdechovat nad\u011bji. Sportovci z cel\u00e9ho sv\u011bta se shrom\u00e1\u017edili v Lond\u00fdn\u011b, tvrd\u011b sout\u011b\u017eili, ale tak\u00e9 navazovali p\u0159\u00e1telstv\u00ed a porozum\u011bn\u00ed.<\/p>\n\n
