3.7m people. A developing economy. Under the occupation of a global nuclear power. Any similar examples in the past?

For all these reasons I am so proud of Georgia for this number of medals! Just push GD out in October and don’t let these medals and the football victory be a happy distraction. ❤️
So happy for Georgia! Imagine if other three finalists, who got silver, also won gold, it would have placed Georgia in the top 15!
Number 7 in population per gold medal too. Even better in terms of medals:GDP ratio

Well done Georgia 🇬🇪
I don’t know if it would count but smaller Warsaw Pact countries which had a fierce rivalry with Russia in sport are similar
Olympic game performance does not have any relation to the country’s prosperity. For many Western countries, they are just not important because it is not about quality of life.
Ukraine except for the population quantity
Post-war Europe.
olympic history of hungary and sweden should be studied in sport colleges. number of medals they have on capita is fascinating
