Where were the first Commonwealth Games held in 1930?
Canada
Canada is correct.
The first Commonwealth Games, then called the British Empire Games, were held in 1930 at Hamilton, Ontario, in Canada. About 400 athletes from 11 countries took part, and the Games have since been held every four years (except during the Second World War) under the names British Empire Games, British Empire and Commonwealth Games, British Commonwealth Games and, from 1978, Commonwealth Games.
India has hosted the Games once, in New Delhi in 2010. Russia and Germany were never part of the British Empire or the Commonwealth and so have never hosted or competed in these Games.
