Explanation

No country in the Southern Hemisphere has ever hosted the Winter Olympic Games. Winter Games require adequate winter conditions, snow sports infrastructure, and cold climate - factors primarily found in the Northern Hemisphere. All Winter Olympics have been hosted in Northern Hemisphere countries (USA, Canada, Japan, Italy, France, Norway, etc.). The Southern Hemisphere's seasons are opposite, making July-August winter there, when Northern Hemisphere hosts summer.
