Participating countries

Eight countries were entered in the outrigger canoeing events at the 1999 Games:[1]

gollark: This would be bad for technology, slow and/or wildly unethical, and not very helpful except under negative utilitarianism.
gollark: Subsistence farming is actually boring and unpleasant though. It is good that we stopped doing it. Although "monke" would be hunter-gathering, strictly. Which is no longer possible at scale due to loss of habitats and population growth.
gollark: That would be silly. I just do things at the correct time.
gollark: Because of rampant nonconsecutive version numbers in phones, 2060 through 2078 actually happen after 2093.
gollark: Maybe for you and your "linear time".
