Chinese Taipei at the 1994 Winter Olympics

Due to the political status of Taiwan, the Republic of China (ROC) competed as Chinese Taipei at the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway. The International Olympic Committee mandates that the Chinese Taipei Olympic Committee flag is used, and not the flag of the Republic of China. In the People's Republic of China (PRC), the team is known as Zhongguo Taibei (中国台北队) or, Taipei, China, where China implies the PRC. China's doing so violates a treaty signed by both countries, Taiwan and China, in which the agreement states that the official name for Taiwan in sporting events is "Chinese Taipei" (中華台北) and not "Taipei, China" (中國台北).
