charlos: Population Adjusted Medals Table
for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games
This is an alternative medals table which ranks the countries according to the number of medals won per 10 million of population.
It should be noted that in the 2008 Olympics there are a total of 302 gold medals to be won, and that for China to be above Jamaica in a population adjusted medal table, they would need to win more than 1,900 gold medals! As such, this medal table should not be taken too seriously.
Nevertheless, congrats to JAMAICA !!

Im sorry to burst your bubble but you should check your statistics,Zimbabwe didnt win one medal,if you cant get that small figure right im sure the whole thing is ridiculously created.China could enter 10 people in any event and still win medals,unfortunately for them theres a limit to entrants for a nation in any given event.Give credit to the chinese and respect them for who they are.They strive to be he best,they wwant it more than anybody else and they are.China rule and catching up to that level will be impossible.Let them set the standard and lets all follow.for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games
