In the modern era ,how many Olympics have been held and how many countries have won and how many times each ?

Question

I can only remember Yankees winning and i think Ruskies won at the least twice. Has anyone else ever won?

Answer 1

the Beijing Games in 2008 will be known as the 29th Olympics Games but actually, this will be the only 26th staging of the Games. the 6th Olympic games which was supposed to be held in Berlin, Germany in 1916 was cancelled due to World War I. and then the 12th Olympic Games which was supposed to be held first in Tokyo, Japan but was moved to Helsinki, Finland in 1940 and the 13th Olympic Games which will held in London, England in 1944 was cancelled due to World War II.

the Yankees had won the most number of Gold medals in these Games for 15 times. the Ruskies or the Soviet Union, seven times (1956, 1960, 1972, 1976, 1980, 1988 and 1992), France once (1900), Britain once (1908), and Germany once (1936)
