The 2010 Winter Olympics, officially known as the XXI Olympic Winter Games, was a winter multi-sport event held in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, from February 12 to February 28. A total of 2,632 athletes (+124 from 2006 Olympics) representing 82 National Olympic Committees (NOCs) (+2 from 2006) participated in 86 medal events (+2 from 2006) from 15 different sports and disciplines (unchanged from 2006).http://www.vancouver2010.com/olympic-news/n/news/the-vancouver-2010-olympic-winter-games-by-the-numbers_297556Ko.html The Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games: By the numbers Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics VANOC March 1, 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20100310011656/http://www.vancouver2010.com/olympic-news/n/news/the-vancouver-2010-olympic-winter-games-by-the-numbers_297556Ko.html March 10, 2010 dead mdy
Athletes from 26 NOCs won at least one medal, and athletes from 19 of these NOCs secured at least one gold. For the first time, Canada won a gold medal at an Olympic Games it hosted, having failed to do so at both the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal and the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary. In contrast to the lack of gold medals at these previous Olympics, the Canadian team finished first overall in gold medal wins,http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2010/feb/27/us-clinches-medals-total-canada-most-golds/ U.S. clinches medals mark, Canada ties gold record February 27, 2010 The Washington Times The Associated Press Vancouver 28 February 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20100303001703/http://washingtontimes.com/news/2010/feb/27/us-clinches-medals-total-canada-most-golds/ March 3, 2010 live mdy and became the first host nation—since Norway in 1952—to lead the gold medal count, with 14 medals. In doing so, it also broke the record for the most gold medals won by a NOC at a single Winter Olympics (the previous was 13, set by the Soviet Union in 1976 and matched by Norway in 2002).https://www.cbc.ca/sports/2.722/canada-sets-olympic-gold-record-1.971872 Canada sets Olympic gold record February 27, 2010 February 27, 2010 Canadian Press CBC Sports live https://web.archive.org/web/20100303045603/http://www.cbc.ca/olympics/story/2010/02/27/sp-canada-gold-otp.html?ref=rss March 3, 2010 The United States placed first in total medals—its second time doing so in a Winter Games—and set a new record for most medals won by a NOC at a single Winter Olympics, with 37 (the previous record was 36, established by Germany in 2002).

Olympic medal table
The medal table is based on information provided by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and is consistent with IOC convention in its published medal tables. The table uses the Olympic medal table sorting method. By default, the table is ordered by the number of gold medals the athletes from a nation have won, where a nation is an entity represented by a National Olympic Committee (NOC). The number of silver medals is taken into consideration next, and then the number of bronze medals.Ostlere Lawrence 11 August 2024 Olympic medal table: USA beat China to top spot at Paris 2024 https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/olympics/olympics-2024-medal-table-count-paris-b2580716.html live https://web.archive.org/web/20240812015233/https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/olympics/olympics-2024-medal-table-count-paris-b2594580.html 12 August 2024 12 August 2024 The Independent enAraton Harvey 18 August 2008 A Medal Count That Adds Up To Little https://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/19/sports/olympics/19araton.html subscription live https://web.archive.org/web/20230321004238/https://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/19/sports/olympics/19araton.html 21 March 2023 25 July 2024 The New York Times If teams are still tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically by their IOC country code.Cons Roddy 10 August 2024 What happens if two countries are tied in the Olympic medal table?
