huinventors1-7, Exercise 3: Counting Hungarian Nobel Prizes

Model answer:

The count depends on the definition. A narrow count includes only those born in present-day Hungary or who worked there when they won; a wider one includes people born in the old Kingdom of Hungary in territories now elsewhere, people of Hungarian descent born abroad, and emigres who took other citizenships. Each choice gives a different number, and the choices touch on questions of identity and borders. A careful account states its definition, uses "Hungarian-born" or "connected with Hungary" as a working description, and reports where the work was done. Counts should be checked against the Nobel records.
