13 Days

The most gold medals ever won by one country at a single winter games is 13. This occurred twice: at the 1976 Olympic Winter Games in Innsbruck by the U.S.S.R. and at the 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City by Norway.

Speed skater Kim Yun-Mi of South Korea is the youngest Olympic gold medalist of all time, having won the Women's short track 3000m relay at the 1994 Lillehammer Games at the age of 13 years and 83 days.
