areppim chart and statistics of 500 top world universities in 2016, showing the scores justifying their rank positions.

The United States are heads and shoulders ahead of other countries as regards the standing of their universities. With 137 institutions, or 27.4% of the top 500 world universities, and 15 among the top 20 top, the United States cast a long shadow over the world university elite.

The list suggests that the university world belongs to the economic heavy-weights. Most top universities are located in the wealthy North American and European countries. Latin America is represented only by the 4 biggest regional nations: Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Mexico with a consolidated total of 9 universities. Africa is represented by only 5 universities from Egypt and South Africa. Southeast Asia, however, has a strong presence. The Chinese nation, upon consolidation of Hong Kong and Taiwan, places 54 universities in the list, or 10.8% of the total.
