Medal tally graph By Alazay

I can see that USA got more medals than New Zealand because USA has a bigger population than most other countries . USA has 46 gold medals 29 silver medals and 29 bronze medals. China came second in the medal tally. They got 38 gold, 27 silver and 23 bronze . I think that New Zealand did really well in the Olympics  and they got 6 gold 2 silver and 5 bronze medals.
