Hints

  1. ↑ a b c d The 1906 Olympic Intermediate Games have no official status. For this reason, the results will not be included in the list of the most successful participants and in the nation ranking.
  2. ↑ Both finalists were placed in second place because no winner could be determined.
  3. ↑ No gold medals were awarded at the Olympic Games in 1896. The winner received a silver, the second a bronze medal, the third received nothing. However, the current scheme is used in the list so that all results can be compared with one another.
