The chart below shows the total number of Olympic medals won by twelve different countries
The bar chart compares twelve countries in terms of the
overall
number of
medals
that they have won at the
Olympic
Games.
It is clear that
the USA is by far the most successful
Olympic
medal-winning nation. Notably, the figures for
gold
,
silver
and
bronze
medals
won by any particular country are similar. The USA has won a total of around 2,300
Olympic
medals
, including approximately 900
gold
medals
, 750
silver
and 650
bronze
. In second place on the all-time
medals
chart is the Soviet Union, with just over 1,000
medals
. Again, the number of
gold
medals
won by
this
country is slightly higher than the number of
silver
or
bronze
medals
. Only four other countries - the UK, France, Germany and Italy - have won more than 500
Olympic
medals
, all with similar proportions of each medal colour. Apart from the USA and the Soviet Union, China is the only other country with a noticeably higher proportion of
gold
medals
(about 200) compared to
silver
and
bronze
(about 100 each).
