Nordic countries seem to also be over-represented in Nobel prizes... Just quickly checked list of countries by Nobel prize laureates (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_Nobel_laureates_per_capita https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_Nobel_lau...), and out of countries with >1 million population, I find Sweden #1, Norway #5, Denmark #7. Although I don't know how to take the bias that Nobel Prize committees all take place in Sweden, a nordic country.
