Germany competed at the ''' 1952 Winter Olympics ''' in Oslo , Norway after not having been invited to the 1948 Winter Olympics because of the role in World War II , and because the NOC restored in 1947 as Deutscher Olympischer Ausschuß did not represent a recognized state yet. The Federal Republic Of Germany was founded in 1949, the '' NOC For Germany '' was renamed and in 1951 recognized by the IOC while recognition of a separate '' NOC Of The GDR '' was declined. East Germans were told to cooperate in a single team Germany, which they declined in 1952, but accepted for 1956 and later.
