United States of America - $13,399,859,000,000
The richest country in the world is also the most indebted. The United States is an astonishing $13.3 trillion in debt as of June 2009, putting each American citizen approximately $43,000 in debt.
United Kingdom - $9,191,104,000,000

Second on the list is the UK. With a relatively small population, the UK's debt per capita stands at $150,000, more than three times the debt of the average American. Huge loans for mortgages on inflated housing prices are a contributing factor to the UK's massive debt. That right there should have told you that something was off about your list.
