In my experience in competiton on other sites here are the top programmers in the world by country:
1. Russia
2. China
3. India
4. South Korea
5. Japan
It usually varies in each competion but the top 3 are usually dominate at major tournaments like:
Google code jam
Top coder open
Code chef smackdown
