We Won The Sydney Olympics!
It is a little known fact, but the medal count of the Realms at the XXVII Olympiad was higher than any single country. We did, however, fail to garner the largest number of Gold medals. Nonetheless, we should be proud of what we achieved, given that our population is only 44% that of the USA, 84% that of Russia, and 9% that of China.

Support London 2012
Despite the disappointment that Toronto did not win its bid to host the 2008 Olympic Games, we must now concentrate on London's bid for 2012. Please show your support on the Guest Book Page. In 2005, we may start a petition for London and any other city from the Realms which makes a bid. Regrettably, this was not done for Toronto 2008.
