This is a list of the best sporting Nations relative to their populations based on the total medal count adjusted for population size and based on the currentOlympic Medal Tally of the top 14 nations
The numbers just show the Total # of medals each of the top 14 nations would have relative to eachother if they had the same population. Chinas population was used as the reference because it has the biggest population and highest medal count, and each country's count shows the medals they have relative to china adjusted for population size.
Pretty interesting. If all the countries had the same population these would be the Olympic rankings.
