List of Nobel prizes by country. Several born in China, but all emigrated to the West. None from Brazil...

en.wikipedia.org

P.S. Interesting footnote on 1957 winner wrt Boxer Rebellion:

Chen Ning Yang
en.wikipedia.org

Yang achieved a special support funding between China and America (known as Boxer Indemnity, restitution of part of war compensation of Eight-Country United Armies' Aggression in China) to study in America. But he was delayed for one year, during which time he taught in a middle school as a teacher and studied field theory.

From 1946, Yang studied at The University of Chicago with Edward Teller (1908–2003), where he received his doctorate in 1948 and remained for a year as assistant to Enrico Fermi.
