The 2014 Winter Olympics were held in Sochi, Russia, the most expensive Olympics, Summer or Winter, in history to that point because of large-scale infrastructure investment in the region. Host nation Russia topped the medal table, though a substantial number of Russian results were later stripped or reallocated following an extensive state-sponsored doping investigation that emerged in subsequent years. New slopestyle and other freestyle skiing and snowboarding events were added to the program.
