Our official historical record is 199 from London 1948 and that was already surpassed, but some journalists claim our actual record is 213 (from the same games) because athletes of team sports that didn't enter any match were not counted as official participants back in the day (while they would count nowadays). Currently at 212, we still can equal or surpass also that number with 1 or 2 more B marks from Swimming.

 

It is amazing how Argentina has such big delegations, but have so few medals. :mumble:

They have huge team this time mostly because Brazil is the host, what opened the door for more continental quotas (especially in team sports). ARG Olympic team is usually considerably smaller.

I used to think the same but if you check closely it's not that many quotas gifted due to Brazil being host. The main profit I think was in women's handball and boxing, but most other would have still qualified or at the very least have a 50/50 chance to still do it.
