There is no "winning country" in the Olympics. The games celebrate human achievement not national achievement. That being said, the US has won the most medals overall in all of the Olympics, Canada may well have won the most Gold Medals in a Winter Olympics and the US may well have won the most medals of any type in any of the Winter Olympics. I don't know which country has won the most Golds and most medals overall in the Summer Olympics.
Medals of achievement. Gold, Bronze and Silver for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place respectively.
The Olympics started giving out medals instead of olive wreaths at the 1904 Summer Olympics in St. Louis, United States. This change was made to provide a more tangible and lasting symbol of achievement for the athletes. The first-place winners were awarded gold medals, second-place winners received silver medals, and third-place winners were given bronze medals.
The 1976 Montreal Olympics were boycotted by 23 Third World countries. It was not one of Australia's greatest Olympic years with 1 silver and 4 bronze medals.
Number of medals won at the Beijing Olympics: 41 medals
three medals are made for Olympics
