Puerto Rico the same, maybe change the heading to teams or something instead of countries.

@springybawb and mortz, thanks for the feedback. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico are indeed only teams and not countries, I've changed the "Can you name the" sentence to include them. Yugoslavia was a country for a long time and it's explained in the note that former countries are also included.

I was going to ask "Where's Ireland?," but apparently they missed in 1994, which makes 2010 their fifth appearance. It'll be interesting to see what this quiz looks like when these Games end.

Per Esme's comment, Ireland should be added as they didn't get any medals at all in their 5th Winter Olympics last year.

San Marino, Monaco, Cyprus, Andorra, Slovenia, Jamaica, Bermuda and South Africa all should be added according to your own source. All but the last three should also have been in the list before the 2010 games. Quite a number of ommissions...

@Tobsodan: You're right. I've added the 4 countries that should've been included from the start.
