The 2018 Winter Olympics were held in Pyeongchang, South Korea, and took place amid a notable diplomatic thaw between North and South Korea, with the two nations marching together at the opening ceremony and fielding a joint women's ice hockey team. Russian athletes who qualified competed as neutral Olympic Athletes from Russia rather than under their national flag, following sanctions connected to the Sochi doping investigation. Norway topped the medal table with a record haul for a single Winter Games.
