During the showing of the countries a group of four was introduced as the “Independent Olympic Athletes”. Does anyone know anything about them?

THe “Independent Olympic Athletes” were from countries that are ‘having problems’, like South Sudan. I remember that (i think) Bosnia-Herzegovenia competed under the Olympic flag, but I can’t remember the year.
