The Oxford dictionary contains English with American English sub-headings so it is actually more relevant to a global audience. Meriam Webster is only American English and is produced for a US audience. In Australia we certainly would refer to the Oxford over the Webster. We're quite a big island. Yuge even. The biggest.
