Baku 2015Minsk 2019 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. By default, the table is ordered by the number of gold medals the athletes from a nation have won, where 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. If nations are still tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically. A total of 844 medals (253 gold, 253 silver and 339 bronze) were awarded. The total number of bronze medals is greater than the total number of gold or silver medals because two bronze medals were awarded per event in 7 sports: badminton, boxing, fencing, judo, sambo, and wrestling. The discrepancy is also caused by a tie for the bronze medal in women's 100 metre butterfly in swimming. Thus, four medals were awarded in this event. 2015 European Games medal table 10 Remaining AZE FlagIOC2team 2015 European Games NOC 79 40 45 21 15 20 yes 18 11 18 16 17 33 12 13 18 10 26 11 10 11 22 8 14 24 8 12 9 8 11 11 8 4 4 7 4 8 7 4 4 6 4 19 4 4 3 4 3 5 2 7 4 3 5 4 3 4 3 2 8 10 2 6 8 2 4 6 2 2 3 2 1 4 2 1 3 1 4 6 1 4 5 1 4 4 2 2 3 1 1 3 1 0 2 0 2 5 0 1 2 0 1 2 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 2 0 0 2 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 Eight nations which failed to win any medals: Albania, Andorra, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta and Monaco.
