Where did you find the ranking?or you count it by yourself? -
I think you are using a "small" screen. Here is what I see from a 1920px width screen: I would suggest you to zoom out the whole website (ctrl on your keyboard+wheel on your mouse out, or ctrl on your keyboard+ "-" symbol on your keyboard). I think the website would be optimized for your screen if you set the zoom to 60-80%. Can you try that and let me know? -

After a rough look I see 16 countries that have secured the minimum standards for at least one athlete. I think there will be a few more today in Perito Moreno. Aruwin Salehhuddin of Malaysia was a surprise to me, but I see that she qualified for Beijing as well. -

Sport teams are like companies in North America. Here they moved their headquarters and are in the middle of rebranding. -

For sporting purposes. He's always had British nationality as he was born in the UK. -
But some of those things are necessary. Younger generations do need to be satisfied to some degree, people aren't going to find the same things interesting forever and that changes with generations. Boring as it unfortunately has become, I'm glad judo is in the Olympics, or BMX or table tennis or diving. Investors and sponsors are also simply necessary, so in that sense, semi-political decisions are indeed needed to keep the Olympics around in the first place. I didn't necessarily 'like' breaking btw, I still find it hard to see it as a form of real competition, but it definitely entertained me more than quite a few other sports. -

Adding a sport to satisfy one particular group (young generations, big investors, sponsors) is a political thing, or at least political stream of logic. IOC can easily check popularity of their decisions, but they opt not to do that. Most of their decisions, if not all, arent based on general public's opinion. So yes, very political. IMO. I dont know about exact statistical data but you seem to be among small percentage of fans who liked breaking. Vast majority of infos or comments outside TL were negative. Not only Raygun's show but overall appeal. IOC did know about that polls even before Paris. I dont mind having sports that i personally dont like as long as they are in minority. We cant be 100% satisfied.
