you have to be the best in your country.
U.S.A. The United States has won the most overall medals. More specifically, the gold, silver, and bronze medals in the summer and winter games combined. However, Norway has outperformed the United States in the winter Olympics overall.
Bigger, Better and UK is overall a better country.
USA (37)
United States of America
AustrailiaI think lol
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.
The previous record for gold medals by the host country was 10. The previous best for gold medals at the winter games, host or not, was 13 by Norway and Russia.
any country can do the Olympics
So far the US won gold medals in certain events during the 2012 Olympics, but as to which country will win the most medals overall, that cannot be determined as of now.
They do a bid and whichever city (and in some cases resorts) has the "best" place to host the Olympics. The winner of the Bid gets to hos the Olympics.
Greece was the country that started the olympics so they won in the first olympics.
