* The abbreviation YUG refers to the united Yugoslavia prior to 1992 (that is, including the former republics of Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, and Macedonia). The abbreviation SCG refers to the "Federal Republic of Yugoslavia", formed by the republics of Serbia and Montenegro since Apr. 17, 1992. From 2006 on, both Serbia and Montenegro compete separately, so there is no longer a team called Yugoslavia.
