| Can you provide a source? It appears as though you are listing the country that won the most *gold* medals, which is not the same as the most overall medals. Even at that, I don't see how you get your Africa answer for 2012: Kenya won 11 medals (2 gold, 4 silver, 5 bronze), Ethiopia won 7 (3 gold, 1 silver, 3 bronze), and South Africa won 6 (3 gold, 2 silver, 1 bronze). By what measure is South Africa the "top medal country"? (Yes, if you rank by number of golds, then break the tie by number of silvers, South Africa is first; but it's ridiculous to suggest that this is the top performance by an African country in the 2012 games.)
tl;dr: You need to provide a source, and you need to explain more precisely what you mean by "top medal country." |
