If EU was considered one country (like the US for example), they would also get a lot fever spots in the olympics, no?
much fewer, India and China are as diverse as Europe but only get to send one delegation, euros shouldn’t be allowed to collate scores if they get to send 30 teams to every fucking event
Well China gets the Hong Kong alt account at least.
Yeah if you’re doing this you should do it per capita (in this case divided by total number of athletes in that group
They’re not allowed anything, it’s just this organization that counted like that. Not official
Chinese prefectures should be allowed to send separate delegations if ‘europe’ gets to take credit for their pissant autonomies so insolently called ‘states’. the fuck is a Denmark, i know it doesn’t have as much cultural diversity as Inner Mongolia
This is a news site making a graphic. They’re “allowed” to do this in the way they’re “allowed” to start making shit up.
Just let anyone who wants to compete and qualifies to participate. What are you (not you, op) afraid of?
that is hilariously pathetic. i had to look it up, because that is such a desperate framing.
Wait for America’s to argue that the total sum of medals is the important metric actually.
And then lose on that too
Non-EU countries: 46 🏅 vs EU countries: 20 🏅
imagine being jingoistic for an event where winning is almost exclusively determined by population pool + wealth + luck
And also, it ideally should be about sportsmanship not whatever jingoistic bs they’re pushing
Any pretense of that went out the window in the '36 Olympics and it has primarily been a political spectacle ever since.
ideally
Unfortunately it is not.

Damn I wonder how good China is against 28 of the most rich countries combined
lmao I can assure you no one in portugal gives a fuck if some spanish much less hungarian dude wins 1 or 2 medals
Please tell me the responses are full of mockery at this framing
Even if I take the framing that seems to be gone for here on a like “medals per capita” basis surely Hong Kong and Georgia blow everyone there out of the fucking water. Like both of those countrys combined have a population of NYC + LA combined and they still rank
Like USA saying they winning the most medals yeah well how many of them gold ??
be europe
have 44 different country teams
which are the richest on the planet
can’t even 4x the ONE single Chinese teamimagine having 44 tries at every single event lmao. And then China has 1 try and still gets half the gold medals
should add eu to the usa tally tbh, call it
whiteywestern worldwest
ernworldDoesn’t look like anything (but white) to me.
They’re doing it! Those SOBs are actually doing it! Fly on you bastards!
“EU countries”?? 🤨
What an embarrassment
