About USA
In 1776, the Continental Congress changed the name of their country to “United States of America” replacing the name “United Colonies.” There are no official languages in the US, but the common languages that are spoken are Spanish, Chinese, French, Tagalog and Vietnamese! There are 27 versions of their flag.
The first time the United States competed in the Olympics was in 1896 in Athens, the capital of Greece. They participated in the Olympic games 28 times! (including the 2020, Tokyo event.) So far, the US has won 1024 gold medals, 795 silver medals, and 709 bronze medals!! Between 1896 and 2020. That’s a lot! The USA is the most successful country in the history of the Olympics.
This year, the USA has won 64 Medals. Team USA has 613 members this year, 193 are returning olympians, and 104 are olympian medalists.
