This is a new participation record for judo at the Olympic Games, with the last record being London 2012 with 135 countries and 387 athletes.
Three nations will be represented by a full team of seven men and seven women: Japan, France and the host country of the Games, Brazil. 27 countries will be present in Rio with a minimum of 5 athletes.
