Haiti at the 1936 Summer Olympics
Haiti was set to participate at the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin, Germany, but its only athlete, weightlifter René Ambroise, pulled out due to injury. In the days before the Games began, the Liechtenstein delegation noticed that its national flag was identical to that of Haiti, however, resulting in both altering the flags for the opening ceremony and, in 1937, Liechtenstein changing its flag.
