The tiny South Asian nation Nepal first appeared at the Winter Olympic Games in 2002, and every time since.
The nation which served as the home of the one-horned rhinoceros and Bengal tiger has also appeared in the Summer Olympics 12 times and captured a bronze medal at the 1988 Seoul Summer Olympic Games, when taekwondo was a demonstration sport.
Nepal sent four athletes at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games and was spearheaded by three-time Olympian Dachhiri Sherpa who competed at the 15-km classical race in the cross-country skiing.
