I believe there is no reason why meteorites would prefer a specific country; they should be distributed more or less randomly. So, you would expect different countries to have more or less the same amount of meteor impacts per unit area; and the largerst countries (in area) to have more meteor impacts, simply because they have a larger area.

What else can I help you with?
Famous asteroid or meteor craters and where they located?
Some of the most famous asteroid or meteor craters include the Chicxulub crater in Mexico, linked to the extinction of the dinosaurs, the Barringer Crater (Meteor Crater) in Arizona, USA, and the Tunguska event in Siberia, Russia. These impact sites have provided valuable insights into the history of our planet and the impacts of celestial objects.
Which state is the barringer meteor crater located?
the barringer crater is located in Arizona
Impact craters are caused by?
It is caused by a collision of smaller body called the meteor, with the surface.
Do meteors hit the moon?
Yes, meteors do hit the moon. The moon's surface is pockmarked with craters from impacts of meteors over billions of years. The lack of atmosphere on the moon makes it more susceptible to meteor impacts compared to Earth.
What evidence shows that some craters were formed by meteors?
Craters with a large central peak and high rim walls are easily identified as impact craters. Meteor Crater near Winslow, Arizona is one example. It's central peak has eroded over the years, but it's rim rises 150 feet above the surrounding terrain.
Does the moon have many craters left by meteor crashes?
Yes.The moon actually does have craters left by meteor crashes.
What geological features are formed by craters as a result of impact?
Meteor craters.
How does the moon get craters?
The moon gets craters from meteor's that hit it's surface
Meteor effects on Mars?
Yes. There are meteor craters all over Mars.
Moon is pitted with what?
Nickel Meteor craters .
What produced the craters in the moon?
Asteroid/meteor impacts.
What are some of the causes of craters?
Meteor impact, volcanism, bombs.
What fills up craters?
That depends on where the crater is, and how it formed. Meteor craters on the Moon or Mars? Nothing generally fills them up, and lunar craters are still visible after many hundreds of thousands of years. On Earth? A meteor crater will, eventually, fill with dust or dirt and water. A good number of meteor craters are visible as circular lakes. The Meteor Crater in Barringer, AZ is still empty after 50,000 years. Volcanic craters sometimes fill with lava, or with dirt and water. Crater Lake in Nevada is a .... lake, filled with .... water.
Huge craters formed when a large meteor hit earth?
Yes, sometimes they did.
What planets are most likely to be pitted with meteor craters?
inner solar system
What are craters on a planet?
Craters are where a chunk of space debris, such as a meteor or comet, has struck the surface of the planet and has caused material from the planets (or moons) surface to be ejected outwards.
Are craters caused by meteorites?
Some craters are caused by meteorites; for example, the Barringer Meteor Crater near Winslow, AZ, USA is probably the best known big crater. But craters can be caused by volcanoes or by explosions as well. Although, to be honest, a meteor crater is caused by an explosion, too, when kinetic energy is converted abruptly into heat.
