Saint Helena, Ascension Island and Tristan are all under one banner now...

That one’s kinda complex. But the Commonwealth Games and Island Games teams only draw from/represent St Helena. And Ascension/Tristan do have their own reserved ISO codes so I put them in. And they’re still represented separately at overseas territory council meetings etc.

That’s a good one! But it’s not a true Africa-wide official competition with the best athletes. Most territories I mentioned have done some sport or another. This is about Olympic-level or similar top-level competition.

BIOT has people that were born and that would make eligible at the Commonwealth Games. 

Yeah but it’s not ever going to happen. Those people got evicted in the 70s and are, well, in their 70s now. Maybe their descendants could take part but they’d never represent the ‘BIOT’, it just represents the injustice. There might be a status change soon anyway so we’ll see what happens.

Non-Olympic Countries and Territories Thread
Posted (edited)

I made this thread for all discussions, questions and breaking news about countries and territories that aren't IOC members; whether it's Bougainville's attempts to become independent, the Faroe Islands trying to join the IOC, Vatican City's athletics team, or a small island competing in organized sport for the first time. 

 

To track where everyone is I made a list here. The list includes all countries and dependencies with some kind of population (going off of ISO codes mostly) and I will be updating it as statuses change. "Competing Internationally" means they're active on an international sporting level – either part of a multi-sport Games or an international sport federation.

Wow thank you for this amazing video, great discovery!

I actually made it ;) But yeah it's footage you can find anywhere. There were also pictures from 1904 and the start of 1896 but I couldn't find any from 1900 or 1906. If you find some do let me know :)

What I am in awe about is that through over one hundred years of history, it just never really changes.
