COMMENTARY     

Prisca (Edinburgh, Scotland)
2nd May 2007 		What about st lucia which produced 2 nobel laureates between 1979 and 1992. where does this country rank?
Check William Arthur Lewis for economics (1979) and Derick Walcott literature (1992)
Will (Palo Alto, US)
12th November 2007 		More significantly than India, Russia or the USSR does not seem to have an entry! On a cursory search I found the following site listing nobel prizes given to people with a connection to Russia or the former USSR, which totaled 49.
