The winner of the 2008 Olympics is...

...the European Union, with the most gold medals. 😉

Guo Jingjing. Hottest woman in the olympics. Although for an entire nation I like the Brazilian women's team.

Perhaps if you had treated your former colonies more fairly then they would not have had less incentive to seek independence. Then you might have more of those metals that you seem to so badly crave and I would not have to hear about ratio of metal arguments.
