Bulgaria at Olympics

Bulgaria is one of the significant medal-winning countries at the Summer Olympics. The country first participated at the Olympic Games at the first modern Games in 1896. The Olympic Committee for Bulgaria was formed in 1923 and it sent a team to the Summer Olympic Games in 1924. Bulgaria has competed at every Summer Games since then, except for 1932, 1948 and 1984. Wrestling and weightlifting have remained the top medal-producing sports for Bulgarian athletes.
