Georgia's delegation to the 2004 olympics in Athens amounted to 372 athletes (4 medals). That's a pretty impressive number considering how tiny Georgia is (about 4 million people).
Interesting comparisons:
Ukraine: 239 athletes (population, about 46 mil)
Azerbaijan: 38 athletes (population almost 9 mil)
Kyrgyzstan: 11 athletes (population about 5 mil)
Russia: 456 athletes (population, about 142 mil)
Only the following countries sent more athletes than Georgia:
Australia (482), China (407), Greece(not too far to travel-441), Germany (479), Russia (456), and the US (536)...
