3. I Would Distinguish Between Dispensationalism and Dominionism
Real dominionism is much smaller, and came from the Calvinist wing of the church (Rushdoony). Most dispensationalists are not even aware of Dominionsism, although they might nod at a lot of the Biblical quotations that Dominionists come out with.

Dispensationism itself is divided between Pentecostal (speaking in tongues) and non-Pentecostal. Both groups are strong in many third-world countries. Most Latin American countries have hundreds of dispensationalist churches. It's not big in Europe, but other Western countries like Canada and Australia have their contingents. A few Asian countries like Indonesia and I believe South Korea have a lot -- not so much in China or Japan.

It's definitely worldwide. But the movement is strongest and most visible in the US.
