Thanks to Starlink, something like 70% of the 7500 satellites orbit Earth are American. Or course by mass, nature still wins by a landslide, but as always, it's all in how in count things.

Space is pretty big. Is it fair to say that the USA dominates up to, say, Earth's Ionosphere?

There are 31 extra-planetary human objects/, 19 of which are American, and 12 are Japanese/Soviet/European/Chinese/Indian, so maybe a bit further than the ionosphere?

Earth orbit is the only useful part of space.
