Germany has hosted two Summer Olympics - 1936 in Berlin, Germany and 1972 in Munich, West Germany.

I now note the question didn’t specify Summer games. I’m pretty sure Garmisch hosted a Winter Olympics at some point. I don’t think East Germany has.

[ciarancareyshurlingarmy]

Not East Germany.

The other three have been correctly answered.

Romania? Cunt have shit loads of medals from the old doping days in gymnastics and non running athletic events plus weightlifting etc and have I think never hosted it

[Julio_Geordio]

ah they’d be way down the list, they only win long distance running events and only in the last 50 years or so.

[Sidney]

Didn’t boycott 1984 either. I think they might have finished second in the medals table.

[Julio_Geordio]

I don’t want to be that guy @ciarancareyshurlingarmy but the UK has Atlantic and Mediterranean borders as well.

[Sidney]

I’ve googled the answer and would never have thought of the country in question.

Correct

Those are All Ireland standard questions.

[backinatracksuit]

Everyone on the forum has probably googled it by now and nobody is brave enough to go out on a limb.
I figured it was one minority sport that gave away a lot of medals but wouldn’t have guessed that one.

I haven’t googled it il guess cuba
