Banarousia 2022 Winter Olympics Bid - Andorra la Vella - Information Page

Hi there! This is an information page for the Banarousian bid for the 2022 Mapping Winter Olympics.

Selection Process
Above this text, you will see a picture of the Banarousian extent, and of all 7 candidate cities, with Andorra la Vella, our selected Olympic candidate, marked in black as opposed to blue. Our 7 candidates were, in alphabetical order: Andorra la Vella, Barcelona, Bern, Geneva, Lyon, Milan, and San Sebastian. Our first round was to sort each city by its individual wealth. We found that Andorra la Vella was the thirdmost wealthy city, then, we looked at the proximity of each city to proper outdoor winter sports facilities. Andorra la Vella placed first on that list, and was deemed the best in proximity to said facilities. Then, we looked at annual tourist revenue, and Andorra la Vella came in as a strong 3rd place, behind Barcelona and Geneva and tied with Milan. At this stage, we were ready for the final elimination round between Geneva and Andorra la Vella. At that point, a referendum was held in each city asking if they should go for the bid. Geneva had an upsetting 37% YES and a 63% NO vote, while Andorra la Vella was happy with the offer, boasting an 82% YES rate and an 18% NO vote. It was, from there, determined that Andorra la Vella would be the bidding city for the 2022 Winter Olympics.

So what does Andorra have to offer?
I'm glad you asked, as Andorra has a variety of resorts and other upscale acommodations to help truly create the "once in a lifetime" feeling. Also, the area is generally very secure, and the citizens of Andorra have hosted the Banarousia Cup, our annual association football championship, this year between the Paris FC and Real Galicia.

Sounds good!
Not just that, but there is plenty to do when the sporting events you aren't attending aren't on. There will be the first ever Olympic Culture Fair in Barcelona, which is a short ride away on our 215-MPH train system. The Culture Fair will provide to be a melting pot of different try-it-yourself sporting events and food tasting. The venues promised have been part of the local budget for years, and we are so excited as a nation to present our bid to the Olympic Commitee!
