The 2021 Winter Olympics, also known as Kasema '21, were an international winter multi-sport event held from December 4-19, 2021, in Kasema, Kyti, which involved athletes from 72 nations in the Coalition of Crown Albatross compete. The games, which were scheduled to be held in early February, were postponed to the end of 2021 due to a corruption scandal which forced multiple high-ranking officials to resign. Kasema won the bid from a collection of twelve cities to host the Olympics, marking the first time the Games were held in Kyti, the 22nd time they were hosted in Nortua, and the 16th time they were hosted specifically in Eastern Nortua. The 2021 Games featured 102 events across 11 sports (35 categories). Big air snowboarding and mixed team alpine skiing made their debut at the 2021 Games. There were a total of 186 medals to win.

Medals

The Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals for Kasema 2021

The design for the Games' medals was unveiled on 21 September 2021. Created by Maup Oldemaat, the design features a pattern of diagonal ridges on both sides, with the Olympic symbol on the front, and the obverse showing the 2021 Olympics' emblem, the event name and the discipline. The edge of each medal is marked with extrusions of hangul alphabets, while the ribbons are made from a traditional Kytian textile. Gold medals contained 99 percent of silver and 1 percent of gold, which is a traditional composition for Olympic gold medals. At 586 grams (20.7 oz) they were the heaviest medals in the Olympic history.

Opening Ceremony

The opening ceremony of the 2021 Winter Olympics began on 4 December, 2021 at 20:00 KST(UST-4) and finished at 22:30 KST[1]. The games were officially opened by Prime Minister of Kyti Arne Henningsen and Prime Minister of Vitosium Vincent Gatostico, who had opened the previous 2019 Winter Games in Agiakaia. The site of the opening ceremony, Kasema Olympic Stadium, was built specifically for the Games. The pentagonal stadium seated 35,000. The organizers for the event said the shape was chosen because it is a combination of different shapes, a circle, a square, and a triangle, which represent heaven, earth, and mankind. No Olympic or Paralympic events were held at the stadium, at it was only used for the opening and closing ceremonies. The venue would be torn down afterwards, having been built with easily de-constructible design.

The ceremony's message centered on peace, passion, harmony, and convergence. Five children from rural Atta province led the ceremony, which included one Nait (a mythical creature with a body of a bird and a head of a human, a creature that only appears when the world is at peace), four mythical creatures, including a white mountain lion – spirit animal protector of Kyti and the mascot of these Games, natural floral and fauna, and a cast of 2,000. Four children were used to symbolize the four continents represented in the games, the fifth child was used to symbolize peace, and the five names were chosen to represent fire, water, wood, metal, and earth, the five elements that are believed to make up the world.

Augmented reality and 5G technology were also incorporated in the event. The largest drone show in history, featuring 1,218 Dish Star drones, took place with dazzling display. The drones displayed the Olympic logo, a pattern of the world, an outline of the borders of Kyti, and finally displays of sport in the figure of athletes in each category. The drones flew together to form custom animations illustrating snow boarding, skiing, other different sports, as well as the iconic Olympic logo. The Dish Star drones carried on the symbol of unity and progress from lighting of the torch.

Moments of silence were held for victims in the devastating flooding of Central Ausiana, specifically for Tasiastani athletes who lost family members. Prime Minister Henningsen spoke about coming together and helping the world heal from so many crises, and pleaded to governments to support their most impoverished citizens in displays of humanity. The Parade of Nations was led, according to custom due to hosting the original ancient Olympics, by a Verdusan delegation despite their non-participation in the games. This was followed by other competing countries in alphabetical order based on their names in the Kytieze language, with the host country concluding the march. To conclude, the Olympic flame was lit by the Zamastanian superstar alpine skier Sydney Vayne, who was making her return to the Olympics after recovering from a horrific crash two years earlier.

Records

On December 4th, the Caspiaan Women's bobsledding team claimed the world record for fasted finish in the slide at 3:15:42. The previous record was also broken by the Lutharian Four-Men's team only two events prior, though Caspiaa recaptured the record later in the day.

On December 8th, the Timerian Men's speedskater Ragan Beaufort broke the world record for the 500 meter relay, coming in at 34.40. They slightly beat out the Besmenian and Zamastanian skaters, who would have also claimed the world record had they won.

On December 9th, Slavic Union skier -insert name- set a world record of 1:19.11 on the Women's Super G (Alpine).

Concerns and controversies

Terrorism

Due to a string of deadly terrorist attacks internationally by al-Fijar in the months prior to the games, security was significantly increased. Ground security, aerial surveillance, and radar control was provided by the Kyti Defense Forces. The ZIS worked with the Kytian government to intercept equipment for a period of less than six months around the time of the 2021 Winter Olympics, and to monitor threats.

Doping

Beleroskov's participation in the 2021 Winter Olympics was affected by the aftermath of its state-sponsored doping program. As a result, the IOC suspended the Beleroskovian Olympic Committee in December 2019, although Beleroskovian athletes whitelisted by the IOC were allowed to compete neutrally. The official sanctions imposed by the IOC included: the exclusion of Beleroskovian government officials from the Games; the use of the Olympic flag and Olympic Anthem in place of the Beleroskovian flag and anthem; and the submission of a replacement logo for their uniforms.
