Romania on the board!! But we probably stole it from Germany or something
“Known to ancients” is basically just Greece right?
whay does population have to do with the geological attributes of the land upon which you live?
sweden just has a ton of mineral rich wasteland up north lol.
What Catholicism does to a country’s scientific scene smh 😔
God may have created the universe, but the swedes organized and classified it. So much scientific progress in several fields were made by early swedish pioneers
Spaniards discovered 3: wolfram/tungsten, vanadium and platinum.
Vanadium is not swedish, they just named it.
What century is this from? IUPAC has long since confirmed everything up to Og. Now Yuri is the only currently living person on the periodic table and only the second ever person who received that honor. Too bad dubna is now suffering under the idiotic actions of their president
Also not really a Swedish victory, half of them come from a random hole in the ground. Dubna and GSI had to work hard to make them in particle accelerators.
How old is this? 113, 115, 117 and 118 have all been named in 2016!
Yeah Polonium was discovered by a French person, that’s why is named Polonium
What’s even more interesting is that is it a single mine that stands for most of the discoveries: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ytterby](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ytterby)
Polon was discovered in France, I’ll give you that…
Just a question as a chemist… how many of you say Tungsten instead of the right Wolframium?
For our little nerd community it is the difference between people and savages.

What a fucking donkey put a French flag on a POLONIUM discovered by Maria SKŁODOWSKA
Radon discovered in Canada
And even if you disregard all the elements found in that one OP mine, I think we’re still on top per capita
[Ytterby is most famous for being the single richest source of elemental discoveries in the world](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ytterby )
Nah man that oxygen flag is an abomination
Did a german time traveled to discover Zinc with ancients people?
You forgot to list Belgium as a UK find
Unfortunately
We’re just too good at these things, we even shared a couple with Pierre to make him feel better
Dammit Sven, you’ve been listening to the Dutch again, haven’t you.
“Per capita”, what utter bollocks.
Also, I’m pretty sure four or five of yours were discovered in the same town, which is cheating.

Nerds
I think ancients knew sodium.
Is norway even a real nordick?
We wanted to find new rocks
You know what Sven, not bad. We’ll let you stand with us on the top of the podium for a few seconds.
Common north west Europe win
Wake me up when a new continent full of gold, silver and ladies is discovered.
You’re gonna trigger the eastern european savages, specifically Poland.
Common Swedish scientific W
And also common British scientific dominance
What the fuck Yttrium is SWEDISH I DONT CARE IF A FINN FOUND IT ITS SWEDISH THEY DIDNT BAVE A COUNTRY AT THE TIME ITS NOT FAIR
Spain getting the W(olfram) once again 🦅🦅
Average Spain W
No, in fact not.
Did PIGS stop doing science after Rome?
They all have one thing in common and im not gonna be the one saying it
If we’re considering population it’s clearly an extremely common British win, Sweden has a population of 1.8 billion for fucks sake

Yep 😀
I expected copper to be the one from Romania
Me now when I see per capita in this sub
