2) United Arab Emerites won their first gold medal when Ahmed Al Maktoum won the men's double trap shooting event.
3) Israel won their first gold medal when Gal Fridman won the men's sailboard sailing event.

2) Suriname - Anthony Nesty won gold in the men's 100 meter butterfly at the 1988 Games in Seoul.
3) Mozambique - Maria de Lurdes Mutola won gold in the women's 800 meter run at the 2000 Games in Sydney.

6) Burundi - Vénuste Niyongabo won gold in the men's 5000 meter run at the 1996 Games in Atlanta.
7) Armenia - Armen Nazarian won gold in men's flyweight Greco-Roman wrestling at the 1996 Games in Atlanta.
In terms of size, that would be Bermuda whose total area of 53.2 square km (20.6 square miles) makes it the smallest territory with a National Olympic Committee to win an Olympic medal.
Bermuda has won 1 Olympic medal through the 2008 Games in Beijing, that being a bronze in men's heavyweight class boxing by Clarence Hill at the 1976 Summer Games in Montreal.
Since Bermuda is a British territory and not really a 'nation', the smallest nation in size to win an Olympic medal is Liechtenstein whose area is 160 square km (62 square miles). Athletes from Liechtenstein have won 9 Olympic medals, all in alpine skiing.
Only 79 of 205 NOCs have not, so that makes 125 countries other than the USA which have won golds; far too many to list here.
Go to the related link and search in the final column for gold medals; any country with a 0 has not won any ever and would be included in such a list. For example, Afghanistan is the first listed, then Barbados if the column is followed to the next zero.
