What country has won the most medals in 2012 olympics so far
The 2010 Olympics was a year in which only the Winter Olympics took place. The Summer Olympics took place in 2008 and 2012. The United States won the most overall medals in the Winter Olympics of 2010, while Canada won the most Gold medals. Marit Bjorgen from Norway was the individual with the most overall medals in the 2010 Winter Olympics.
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.
No. The Winter Olympics occur every four years, but are separated from the Summer Olympics by two years.
