Iceland has zero right now I think, not sure on total.

I think I saw Denmark has zero too, or at least they did...while Estonia and Khazakstan each have 1

correct, Iceland has ZERO medals in Vancouver. I mean, I know they actually have a mild climate most of the year, but they still get a lot of snow and ice.

Luxembourg, 500,000 people and they have 2 medals all-time at the winter olympics

Iceland, 300,000, 0 medals all-time at the olympics.

Not exactly a huge differential there. Also, the Virgin Islands have one medal in the Summer Olympics and they have about 100,000 people.

C'mon Iceland, not one ever!?

How many athletes are in the Olympics from Iceland? Not many, if any? It is too cold there to go out much. They could focus on Curling, but they don't have the money for teams or the training/facilities/money to train athletes or send them to Canada and the US to train. Give Iceland a break.

You're thinking of Greenland.

Iceland is green and Greenland is Ice.
