International Mathematical Olympiad, English name: International Mathematical Olympiad, abbreviated as IMO. The name "Mathematical Olympics" originated from the Soviet Union, which linked ancient Greece, the birthplace of sports competitions and science, with mathematical competitions.
In the first half of the 20th century, different countries organized all kinds of mathematics competitions at all levels, first in schools, then in regions, and then in the whole country, and gradually formed a pyramid competition system. The further development of national competitions naturally creates the necessary conditions for the formation of the highest level international Olympic competition.
On July 12, 2023, in the 64th International Mathematical Olympiad, all six players from China won gold medals, and the China team won five consecutive international mathematical olympiads.
