Value country: = 
SUM( Data[Value] )

 

Value percent grandtotal: = 
VAR _valueall =
    CALCULATE ( [Value country:], ALL () )
RETURN
    DIVIDE ( [Value country:], _valueall )

 

Top five percent: = 
CALCULATE (
    [Value percent grandtotal:],
    KEEPFILTERS (
        TOPN (
            5,
            ADDCOLUMNS (
                ALL ( Data[Country] ),
                "@valuepercent", [Value percent grandtotal:]
            ),
            [@valuepercent], DESC
        )
