But, of course, a large population is not always a recipe for success. The most striking example is India, one of the least sports-oriented countries in the world, given its demographics: six medals for more than 1.2 billion inhabitants – the same number as Croatia, which has a population of just 4.3 million!
但是，人口众多并不是万能的成功秘诀。最令人吃惊的例子是印度，从人口统计角度看，它算得上是全世界最不爱体育的国家：12亿人口只获得了6块奖牌，和只有430万人的克罗地亚等量齐观！
