A Map of Global Debt - Which Country Owes the Most?
I stumbled across an interesting tool The Economist rigged up that shows - nation by nation - who proudly own the most debt. As it stands right now, the world owes a total of $35 trillion. Who owes the most and the least? Check out the map to see.

I don’t know of any particular use this will have to us as investors, since the world is so co-dependent, one country’s massive debt will affect all markets. Still, it’s worth knowing who’s not getting crushed by a mountain of bills.
Have fun.
