Medal table

The ranking in this table is consistent with International Olympic Committee 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 (in this context, a "nation" is an entity represented by a National Olympic Committee). 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; they are listed alphabetically by IOC country code.

gollark: Wait, removing the weirding gadget? What's the replacement?
gollark: OR DO YOU?
gollark: Something like that, but it's not because of higher or lower gravity.
gollark: If you go deeper underwater, then the change in pressure isn't due to higher gravity - it's not significant enough of a change - but... more being above you, or something, so it's compressed more?
gollark: I mean, very slightly yes, but not significantly.
