The October 2009 Simlympics, also known as Leah 2009 and officially known as the Games of the XI Simlympiad, are a major SimCity Online Community milti-sport event held in Leah, Paranor Island of the SCJU. It is the first Simlympics that League of Nations members will be participating in.
Leah was awarded the Games over four other bids on September 1, 2009. The Government of the Republic of Paranor Island invested heavily on its presentation causing other bids to withdraw. The highlight of the bid was its use of the portable document format (PDF) which was 25 pages long. This was also the first time a bid was presented in PDF format.
The Games will run from October 1st to the 17th, when the closing ceremony will take place. The October 2009 Simlympic Torch Relay was held fourteen days days prior to the day of the opening ceremony. 95 nations are participating in the October 2009 Simlympics, and it is highly likely to be the largest staging of the event despite the downgrade in number of participating countries from 112 nations.

The October 2009 Simlympics set the milestone for the first ever Simlympics to contain actual broadcast television by Jiesan's Radio Television Arts, which covered a story on the country's Simlympic tennis doubles team's bid for another gold following their first place finish at the July 2009 Simlympics while featuring the Simlympic emblem along its network logo as the official Simlympic broadcaster for Jiesan and Isporos. Though brief and not a total presentation of the Games, RTA promised to develop its venture to broadcast entire Simlympic events in the future.
