It originated in Europe and has spread elsewhere, pretty much along
standard lines (PAL versus NTSC etc). There's maps on the dvb.org site,
such as

ATSC (the US digital standard for over-the-air terrestrial) is only used
in North America and Japan. The US is using DVB-C and DVB-S though
(cable and satellite).
