http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_external_debt

This is a list of countries by external debt, the total public and private debt owed to, or invested by, nonresidents repayable in foreign currency, goods, or services,^[1] where the public debt is the money or credit owed by any level of government, from central to local, and the private debt the money or credit owed by private households or private corporations based in the country under consideration.
