The 2024 Paris Olympics were a golden Games, especially for the United States and China.

The two countries tied for the most gold medals at this year's Summer Olympics with 40 apiece. China led by one gold heading into the final event of the Games, but the U.S. women's basketball team came through with one final Olympic title for Team USA to even the score ahead of the Closing Ceremony.

While the U.S. and China tied for gold in Paris, it's Team USA and then everyone else in the all-time gold medal count. The U.S. is up to 1,110 Summer Olympic gold medals all-time, nearly three times as many as the No. 2 country on the list and nearly four times as many as any existing nation.

Team USA wasn't the only one to add to its Olympic history this summer. Ninety-one of the 206 participating countries medaled in Paris, with 63 winning at least one gold.
