It is reliant on enthusiasts uploading the info. This is achieved via a Mode S box.
Not all aircraft have a Mode S transponder giving out the enhanced information, so they will not be displayed eg Flybe and Eastern aircraft in the UK, and most military aircraft.
As these Mode S boxes only pick up aircraft in line of sight, large areas such as Africa would require a much larger number of enthusiasts.
It is quite obvious that there are many more enthusiasts in Europe and the US, and people with the disposable income to purchase the equipment.
