Bangladesh: Country with the 160 million people that never wins a medal in the Olympics

Despite being home to nearly 160 million people, nobody from Bangladesh has ever even qualified for the Olympics – their competitors have all been wildcard entries – let alone being able to reach the podium. It makes Bangladesh the country “with the highest population which never wins a medal in the Olympic”.Bangladesh is among the 75 countries out of 206 which have not yet managed to claim a spot on the Olympic medal table
