Japanese athletes have attended every edition of the Summer Olympic Games from 1912 onwards, except for two occasions: the 1948 Summer Olympics in London, to which they were not invited because of the nation's role in World War II and the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow, as part of the United States-led boycott.
