Map of countries by foreign currency reserves and gold minus external debt based on 2009 data from CIA Factbook.

This is a list of countries by public debt as listed by CIA's World Factbook 2010. It is the cumulative total of all government borrowings less repayments that are denominated in a country's home currency. Public debt should not be confused with external debt, which reflects the foreign currency liabilities of both the private and public sector and must be financed out of foreign exchange earnings. The figures here are represented as a percentage of annual gross domestic product.
