Probably Norway, they struck oil thirty years ago and have lived well ever since.

The UK also struck oil about the same time, and look at us now.

None.Every country owes money. The real measure of degree of indebtedness is expressed as debt as a percentage of G.D.P.

Here are the rankings.

That means Canada is in much better shape than US and UK.

Yes, and fortunately the governing Conservative Party continues to reign in spending while projecting a balanced budget by March 31st, 2014.

I would guess China.

But I'm sure they owe money to someone somewhere.

I think Switzerland would be on the debt-free or low debt list. Also Alberta, Canada (even though it's not a country) is debt free.

Cucumber - I had no idea - it was just a wild guess. Thanks for clearing that up. I am kind of disappointed because I like Switzerland so much. r/yvonne57
