So either Sweden or Finland then? I started playing floorball about two years ago and it is a very fun sport (wish it allowed some physicality in it though).

Sweden and Finland is the best in floorball. Been that way for many years.

physicality is allowed in international games, but if you play physical too hard they will give "freekick".

I follow it only briefly. But how many top leagues are in the world?

Probably 3. Swiss, Swedish and Finnish leagues.

Regarding player budgets in Finnish league, top teams have around 100-300k budget and lower tier teams only about 10k. So basically handful of top players can play floorball professionally (Barely)

Swiss league pays the best salary for star players, probably like 50-100k to couple players.
