Athletes put a kind of sheet on the back. It shows their country code, name, event... I don't know what it is called though.
The biggest is the country code, such as Japan is JPN.
On the back of North Korean athletes, "PRK" is written. PRK? North Korea --- PRK? I wondered why.
According to a dictionary, PRK is an abbreviation of People's Republic of Kampuchea. ??
So I looked up North Korea in the dictionary.
I see. Its formal name in English is Democratic People's Republic of Korea. I understood. It is very strange that there is "Democratic" in their name though.
But... what about Cambodia's code?
