5, confusing question, does it mean the summer Olympics?
would have thought Greece, but some say Mexico, but here it says different.

To date, only five countries have participated in every Summer Olympic Games – Australia, France, Great Britain, Greece and Switzerland.

Not cheating, but am sure out of all those countries I could have got it right :hide: :hide: :sunglasses:
