The
1994
Asian Games
, also known as the
XII Asiad
and the
12th Asian Games
, were held from October 2 to 16, 1994, in
Hiroshima
, Japan. The main theme of this edition was to promote peace and harmony among Asian nations. It was emphasized by the host because the venue was the site of the first
atomic bomb attack
49 years earlier. Due to the 1991
Gulf War
, Iraq was suspended from the games. The games became memorable by the debuts of former republics of the Soviet Union: Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan.
