Well when the USSR split up that added 14 but then the two Germanys became one. A lot of the add ons are very small nations that get subsidies to send an official and athlete or two that they didn’t get in past games.

Yep, very nice, and the Messiah’s campaign had a cow about it, claimed the numbers were cooked. Yeah, saying the most liberal guy in the Senate voted to raise a tax or two MUST be a lie.
