norwegian winter test

Norway competed at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, China, from 4 to 20 February 2022. The Norwegian team consisted of 84 athletes. Kjetil Jansrud and Kristin Skaslien were the country's flagbearers during the opening ceremony. Biathlete Marte Olsbu Røiseland was the flagbearer during the closing ceremony.
Three days before the closing ceremony, Norway won its 14th gold medal, thus matching its record performance of 2018, as well as Canada's 2010 and Germany's 2018 results. Norway won its 15th gold medal on 18 February, thus breaking the record.
This should be seen in light of the ongoing medal inflation, e.g., from 16 gold medals in 1924 to 109 in 2022. However, Norway also holds the medal inflation-adjusted records: in 1936, Norwegian athletes won 41% of all events (7 out of 17), in 1928, 43% (6 out of 14). As of 20 February 2022, this percentage for the 2022 Games stands at ~14%.
