Metric: Total Nobel laureates attributed to the country
Data through: 2025
Source: Nobel Prize organisation
Notes: Laureates are counted under the country the Nobel committee lists for them, which is usually their institution or citizenship at the time of the award — not necessarily where they were born. Some laureates count for more than one country.
