This is a map of national debt shown as a percentage of GDP. I guess GDP includes yearly interest from loans these countries have loaned to others, but not the full expected return, which would change the accuracy a lot, but I could be wrong.
It looks like the idea of borrowing your way into a prosperous country in a competitive international economy seems to be a popular way of getting a leg-up as lots of "richer" countries carry a 60% or so debt.
