Fig 1. Pie Chart: Nobel Peace Prize Winners by Country of Origin

This chart displays Nobel Peace Prize winners' country of birth as a percent of total Peace Prize winners. This visualization clearly shows that the United States makes up the greatest percentage of birth countries, followed by France and Sweden. One caveat of this chart is that birth country data was available for only 85 out of 112 Peace Prize Winners.


Fig 2. Nobel Peace Prize Winners by Country and Gender

This chart shows the number of Peace Prize winners by birth country, disaggregated by gender.
