2014 Winter Olympic Competing Nations ALBANIA (ALB)
2014 Winter Olympic Competing Nations We list below detailed historial Olympic information for every IOC Member Nation that has previously competed at the Olympic Winter Games and that will compete in Sochi, as of 27 January 2014. There appear to be 88 qualified NOCs that have met IF quota requirements as of 24 January, and have accepted them (the previous record for a Winter Olympics is 82 in 2010 at Vancouver). Unfortunately, after reallocation of some quotas, only the skiing federation (FIS) has published the final quotas as of 26 January. We have tried to list below the sports for which each NOC has qualified but there is a small chance, with reallocations, that there may be minor differences in the final allocation by sport. There are seven nations that will compete in Sochi that have never before competed at the Olympic Winter Games – Dominica, Malta, Paraguay, Timor-Leste (East Timor), Togo, Tonga, and Zimbabwe. Their factsheets have been published previously on olympstats.com – see http://olympstats.com/2014/01/23/new-winter-olympic-nations-for-sochi/, which came out on 23 January. One problem nation is listed below and that is DPR Korea (North). They have not qualified any athletes for Sochi. They had the 1st and 2nd reserves for pairs figure skating but those do not appear to have been chosen by final reallocation of quota sports by the International Skating Union (ISU). However, yesterday (26 January), DPR Korea has petitioned the IOC for redress to allow them to have Olympic athletes compete in Sochi. So they are included below but it is unknown if they will compete. -

En gang i fjor vinter satt jeg og så på sportsnyhetene på TV2, da et innslag om skiskytteren Ole Einar Bjørndalen kom på lufta. Normalt er jeg ikke så veldig interessert i vinteridrett, me jeg skiftet likevel ikke kanal. Bjørndalen hadde nettopp vunnet ett eller annet verdenscuprenn og ble intervjuet om hvor ”bra han hadde det nå”. Mens jeg så på, ble jeg mer og mer oppmerksom på logoen han hadde på skulderen og på lua, nemlig logoen til tekstilleverandøren ”Bjørn Dæhlie Collection”, forkortet som Bj. Plutselig kom Bjørn Dæhlie selv inn fra siden og overtok intervjuingen for reporteren. Jeg begynte å lure på hvorvidt koblingen mellom Dæhlie som tidligere toppidrettsutøver, intervjuer, sponsor av de norske skiskytterne, Bjørndalens svært så passende seier og eksponeringen av logoen var tilfeldig. Dagens toppidrettsutøvere er vår tids nye aristokrater, heter det. De fleste av disse aristokratene har en årlig inntekt de færreste vanlige mennesker kan håpe på i løpet av et lang arbeidsliv, eller iallfall noen tiår. Ved siden av ”prispengene”, dvs. den lønnen de faktisk får for å utøve sin idrett, har de muligheten til å tjene store penger i kraft av sin status som kulturelle ikoner.
