Up until 1987, the countries of Great Britain competed individually. For the purposes of this quiz I have added all of the medals they won as individual countries to the overall United Kingdom total. I've also included England as a type in, because the bulk of the medals in the UK total were won by athletes competing for England up until 1987.
