Australia: 35 billion in debt 

We spent all that and much much more when we had money in 2008-2010. Yay go Labour. 

But looking at the list, there are so many poor african nations in Millions of debt from loans from countries from europe and US that would never never repay them which money would of went to buying weapons from US, UK, Russia, China and France. 



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

SamuelRSmith on 25 May 2011

I'll just copy and paste what I said in the other thread (as one is bound to be locked)

This is exports-imports. This doesn't rank wealth, at all. In fact, as current accounts will always, by definition, end up balancing, this implies that in the future, the USA will have one of the largest trade surplusses in the world, and China, the largest trade deficit (either that, or minimal surplus/deficit for very, very, very long periods of time).

This is, in no way, a measure of how rich or poor a country is.
