Not to mention Africa and several islands off Canada. 

Anyway, Moldy Voldy is a Brit and it is the duty of the Brits to 
fight first, but I do not imagine that He controlled only British 
wizards or that he was only going to get rid of muggles and mudbloods 
in the UK and/or Europe. I sincerely hope that some Salem witches get 
a hand in smacking Voldy down the second time around. Rather like 
WWII. Joint effort of a great many people and nations to defeat his 
nastiness. That's just a hope; I'm guessing that JKR has enough on 
her hands with the cast of characters she's created. Ah well!
