Cyprus (CYP) has sent athletes to every Olympic Games held since 1980, although the country has never won an Olympic medal. The first modern Olympian from Cyprus was actually Anastasios Andreou, who competed under the Greek flag. At this time, Cyprus was a British protectorate.

Because the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus is internationally unrecognised, it has no Olympic committee. [1] Therefore, all Cypriot Olympians compete under the name and flag of the Republic of Cyprus.
