I can't say whether every country is covered, but: Hatchette, Holtzbrinck/Macmillan, Penguin/Random House, HarperCollins, and Simon & Schuster are all multinational companies that have publishing subsidiaries throughout English speaking countries and Europe, and according to Wikipedia, all have global distribution. It's certainly possible that they keep the subsidiaries separate for accounting reasons, for example, to keep income within national boundaries for tax purposes. I don't know whether this also affects contracts with authors.
