Medal count for the Commonwealth Games - fun and facts from the Games (130 words)
Medal counts in the Commonwealth Games tend to be heavily slanted towards the largest, industralized nations such as England, Australia and Canada, making the games somewhat one-sided.
The limited success of the smaller nations are a source of national pride, and give them a feeling of being part of the greater Commonwealth group.
Out of the previous 17 Games, Australia has lead the medal count 10 times, with England 6 times and Canada 1 time.
