Mathematics is not a science. Its not empirical. It doesnt rely on observations about the world.

There were no great scientists from America. Their predecessors all came from Europe, so Amercians shouldn´t be allowed to post here.

If your country sucks so much that the scientists want to leave it then they don't count. That said my country has no well-known scientists worth mentioning.

William Shockley
Bio: Single handily created Silicon Valley and gave birth to today's electronics. Too bad nigger loving liberals and inbred redneck conservatives killed his reputation for simply stating the obvious fact that if stupid people reproduce at a higher rate than intelligent people, the general population will tend to get stupider. He died with his Nobel winning reputation worth $1US and practically forgotten in history. Meanwhile, Americans get increasingly more idiotic by the year...

The greater truths that encompass the relations between seemingly different mathematical structures don't depend on any type of observation, obviously. But the structures themselves are empirical as they were created based off of sensory driven conceptions
