The significance of German extends well beyond economic considerations. A review of Nobel Prizes shows that scientists
from the three major German-speaking countries have won 21 in Physics, 30 in Chemistry, and 25 in Medicine, while many
laureates from other countries received their training in German universities. Nine Nobel Prizes in Literature have
been awarded to German and Swiss writers, and seven Germans and Austrians have received the Peace Prize.
