Notes

Egypt and Syria each took part in 1951–55. In 1958 they joined to form the United Arab Republic (UAR), so Egyptian and Syrian athletes competed as UAR at the 1959 Games. In 1961 Syria seceded from the union and fielded its own team again for the 1963 Games. Egypt also took part in 1963, formally retaining the name UAR, which was changed back to Egypt years later in 1971. Neither country sent teams to the 1967 Games in Tunis, which took place three months after the Six-Day War.

Yugoslavia was one of the 10 countries which took part in the inaugural 1951 Games in Cairo, and continued to feature regularly at the event, missing only the 1955 Games in Barcelona before its dissolution in the early 1990s, with its final appearance at the 1991 Games in Athens.

By the time of the 1993 Games in Languedoc-Rousillon four out of the former six Yugoslav republics had seceded to become independent nations, with three of them fielding their own teams (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Slovenia) to the event. The remaining two - Serbia and Montenegro - kept the name Yugoslavia and competed under that name at the 1997 and 2001 Games. In 2003 the country was officially renamed Serbia and Montenegro and appeared as such at the 2005 Games, before they each became independent nations the following year.

In 2013, North Macedonia had its first appearance at the Games, and Kosovo - formerly a province of Serbia which had declared independence in 2008 - made its first appearance in 2018 in Tarragona. This means that 7 out of 26 teams competing at Tarragona represented former territories of Yugoslavia, including three which are landlocked (Kosovo, North Macedonia, and Serbia).
