As no one tank is suited to operate in all the worlds terrain you will have to take this as a guide.
British. Challenger 2. Main Battle Tank,
U.S. Abrams. Main Battle Tank,
Israel. Merkava 4. Main Battle Tank,
Germany. Leopard 2 Main Battle Tank,
France. Leclerc Main Battle Tank,
Russia. T-90S Main Battle Tank,
China. ZTZ99 (Type 99) Main Battle Tank,
South Korea. K1A1 Main Battle Tank,
Italy. Ariete Main Battle Tank,
South Africa. Olifant Mk 1B Main Battle Tank.
As for all the reasons you will have to do some of your own homework :-P

This question was brought up on the discovery channel a while back. It was actually best 10 tanks EVER. I don't remember all of them and what rank they were but here's a few (In no particular order):
1. M1A1 Abrams - Obviously. Built to withstand land mines, rockets, and missles. High resolution optics. And able to withstand most NBC attacks.
2. German Tiger - Built during World War 2, it was fast and armed well for its time. Its armor surpassed anything during its time.
Whew!! Brain fart I need a break!!
Hope this works for now. Try looking at wikipedia for "tanks". Also try Jane's encyclopedia online. Its known for specific military knowledge about any vehicle and weapon.

There are only 2 "best tanks on earth".
The US made M1 Abrams tanks, and the Israeli made Merkava (Chariot) series tanks.
Period.
