There is literally nothing wrong with using per capita.
The fact is that our country has the highest concentration of Olympians in the history of the world.

>winter """"""""""olympics""""""""
good one m8, but try that with actual olympians
winter olympics >>>>>> summer olympics amn frankly it's not even close.
Is this really:
>Winter Olympics being as valuable as summer olympics
>Bronze being as valuable as gold
>Forgetting there's a limit on number of Olympians you can send
>Assuming a directly proportional relationship between medals and population
...
This can't be happening, we're in charge here
hahaahahaah are you serious?? why don't you look at the pic one more time.
90% of the world isn't even aware that the winter Olympics exist.
It's a local event, not really relevant for these stats
The Winter Olympics is actually challenging, though. I couldn't ski the Hahnenkamm, but I can certainly run 10k. I can't do a triple backflip on a snowboard, but I can definitely ride a bike.
...
Whatever makes you feel better.
Most of the summer Olympic events are there to make sure Jamal can do his sprints, or some American can drink gallons of urine in a swimming pool.
>winter olympics
Winter Olympics are as relevant as the X-Games
can't see properly with your ching chong eyes?
per capita is retarded when there are only so many events to compete in
even if china won 304/306 golds and Finland won 2, Finland would have 2.7 million people per gold vs China's 4.4 million
>bahamas,jamaica,hungary in top10
You really think that chart is winter olympics? I thought Asians were smart.
that's why per capita is useful with large sample like the OP's all time. It's not useful for 1 event etc.
>fiji has a population of 900,000
>has 1 (one) gold medal
>even if you won gold in every event left you wouldn't beat that 1 (one) medal
Sup Forums will unironically defend this
>winter Olympics
Fuck off Pekka
it's still not useful. china could be dominant for 20 years with a small country like grenada squeaking out a gold here and there and the smaller country would look better.
bermuda literally has 1 medal and looks twice as good in per capita as the united states, which has almost 2500
are the people saying winter olympics baiting or just retarded
in what fucking world would bahamas have 12 medals in the winter olympics
More relevant picture
Like 80% of those medals were won back in the 20s and 30s when your average fat guy these days could have swept the board
>not adjusted for population at time medal was won
shit metric desu
>10 golds in 32 years
embarassing desu
We need one more medal to secure TOP 5
way to go Finnbros!!!
>There is literally nothing wrong with using per capita.
yeah, except it doesn't represent the number of athletes who participated in the GAMES where those medals were AWARDED. you just sat on your fat ass at home being jelly of americans
Except there is, and we literally have been over this yesterday.
>36 canada
>37 USA
god why the fuck is our pants so shit at sports lads?
Only top 10 per capita medalist nations allowed ITT
HOLD IT RIGHT THERE STRAYA
Well done straya, well done.. HOWEVER only top10 per capita countries allowed
