   Well, they've got Finland further south of Ukraine, too. I guess they're better at making graphics than they are at geography.

   Very interesting to see the changes during and after the boycotts.

   Look at Australia!!

   A country that has only just broken the 20 million population mark.

   Unbelievable number of medals.

   Also re the drifting geography , much like the London Tube graphic that we're all familiar with,this is also not a map.

   I'm impressed with the medal count of Cuba. in Athens it was only 3 medals short of Britain's total. And I would assume the money/facilities involved in Britain's team would have been far greater than that of Cuba.

   Trinidad and Tobago is such fun to say, apologies to Nicole, and Bolivia.

   Well, India got it's first olympic medal in 2008 at the Beijing Olympics ... interesting

   But if you check East Germany (a country that doesn't exist today), you will be surprised to find them still high on the list... even today!
