It is Nauru. With roughly 9,300 people, it’s the least populous country competing in the Olympics. Nauru had a weightlifter competing named Itte Detenamo. He is the pride of Nauru. Said Detenamo: “I’ve been to a lot, Europe, Asia, America. I’ve been everywhere. Them being larger is OK. Nauru, it’s my home.” To Detenamo and probably most people in Nauru, Nauru is the greatest country in the world and they would not want to live anywhere else. Americans are stupid. When they say these things they don’t think that billions of people in hundreds of countries say the same things. Not everyone wants to be an American and live in America.
