Asia, Australia, Africa, Europe, South America, and North America.
There are 5 continents which participate in the Olympics- 1.Asia 2.Africa 3.Europe 4.America (Both North and south) 5.Oceania S VIGNESH
I don't know about Australia, but Antarctica cannot participate because it has no real residents. The only people that live there are only living there temporarily and only to do scientific research. To participate in the olympics, a county must have some permanent residents to participate in all the events.
Did you mean continents?
There were three continents that did not participate: Antarctica, Asia, and Africa. There is some dispute as to whether or not Chile participated in the 1896 Olympics. If they didn't, then the number would go up to four to include South America.
This question is somewhat confusing. Are you saying "Why do people on this website not know what the five continents (not countries) that participate in the Olympics are?" There are six continents that compete in the Olympics: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia & Oceania. There are only 5 Olympic Committees at a continental level, although all previously stated continents are a part of them: America (North and South America), Europe (including all of Russia, the Caucus States, and Turkey), Africa, Asia, and Oceania.
People come from different countries to participate in the Olympic Games. Many of these countries are on different continents, however the athletes represent their country not their continent.
