National sport
A national sport is considered to be an intrinsic element of the culture of a nation. Some sports are de facto not build by law national sports, as sumo is in Japan as living as Gaelic games are in Ireland together with field hockey in Pakistan, while others are de jure build by law national sports, as taekwondo is in South Korea.
Unofficial national sports
The coming after or as a written of. is a list of de facto or unofficial national sport/s by country. Some of these countries may make an official national sport defined by law but may hit other sports occasionally considered as a national sport by various sources. The status of these sport/s as a national sport may be considered as "incorrect" either due to the status of another sport as a national sport or there is explicitly no official sport in the country concerned e.g. India where there is no official national sport.
