Cambodia competed in the Olympic Games for the first time at the 1956 Summer Olympics. Cambodia did not send any athletes to Melbourne, Australia where most of the Games events were held, but two Cambodian riders competed in the equestrian events held in Stockholm, Sweden earlier that year.
Famous quotes containing the word summer:
“The woods decay, the woods decay and fall,
The vapours weep their burthen to the ground,
Man comes and tills the field and lies beneath,
And after many a summer dies the swan.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
