United Team of Germany at the Olympics
The United Team of Germany was a combined team from West Germany and East Germany that competed in the 1956, 1960 and 1964 Winter and Summer Olympic Games. In the 1968 Winter Olympics, East and West Germany competed as separate teams but they both used the same compromise Olympic flag and Beethoven anthem. From the 1972 Winter Olympics the two teams competed separately with separate flags and anthems.[1]
