The
Everything Olympiads are the culmination of the will of humanity to know all. In it,
noders from around the world join together to compete not as
nations or
ideologies, but as individuals. The
IEOC promotes the ideals of
Everything Unity through
the Games and passes on the torch of
hope to
future generations that they too shall join us.
