All cities wishing to host the Games have to apply to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) by a certain date. These are called 'Applicant Cities'. The IOC considers each of the Applicant Cities carefully, then selects a smaller number of 'Candidate Cities. Each Candidate City submits details of their plans to host the Olympics. Members of the IOC visit that city, assess its suitability and prepare a report. Members of the IOC then vote for their final choice. A host city is elected several years before the Games are held there, as cities need a long time to prepare. The city of London was chosen in 2005 to host the Summer Olympics in 2012, and Rio de Janeiro has been chosen as host in 2016. The deadline for applications to host the 2020 Olympics was I September 2011, and the IOC received six applications. These cities, in alphabetical order, were: Baku (Azerbaijan); Doha (Qatar); Istanbul (Turkey); Madrid (Spain); Rome (Italy) and Tokyo (Japan). The final election of the 2020 host city will take place in Buenos Aires, Argentina on 2 September 2013.

It came out of the wall and pulled me with it. Suddenly I was falling down the cliff.
