Also, the United Kingdom competed as one country, unlike the Commonwealth Games today when they compete as [[England]], [[Wales]], [[Scotland]], and [[Northern Ireland]]. Canada topped the medal table by winning 4 events.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/AS19110804.2.69|title=Inter-Empire Championships.|date=4 August 1911|work=Auckland Star|access-date=10 March 2018|pages=7|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180310135609/https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/AS19110804.2.69|archive-date=10 March 2018|url-status=live}}</ref>}}
