Olympics: Day 14- Statistics! Glorious, Glorious Statistics!

Exactly what it says on the label; today you get a semi-random assortment of Olympic statistics. Medal statistics do not include Athens 1906; the IOC doesn't officially recognize those.

ALL-TIME MEDAL LEADER: United States. Including Vancouver, they have 2,539 overall medals. They won't lose the lead for a while; the Soviet Union dissolved at 1,204 (they are considered a distinct entity from Russia).
ALL-TIME SUMMER LEADER: United States, at 2,295. The Soviets ended with 1,010.
ALL-TIME WINTER LEADER: Norway. As of the start of today, they had 298 to the United States' 244.

The overalls go 1-2 with the same pairings when you count individual medals with the sole exception of Winter bronzes, where instead of Norway-US, it goes Norway-Austria. Norway has 90; Austria 73. (As of today, though, the US has 70.)

PERFECT ATTENDANCE CLUB: Only France, Great Britain and Switzerland have attended every Olympics since 1896.
PERFECT SUMMER CLUB: Add Greece.
PERFECT WINTER CLUB: Add Austria, Canada, Finland, Hungary, Italy, Norway, Poland, Sweden and the United States.
