Net debt and interest: IMF World Economic Outlook, October 2026, general government, 2025, mostly IMF estimates. A dash means no comparable figure. How these are calculated.

In nominal terms, Germany carries the larger government debt — roughly 3365.4× that of Grenada, a difference of $3.48 trillion. Debt-to-GDP (Germany: 63%, Grenada: 69%) says more about the burden than the raw total does.

Among the 194 governments tracked here, Germany ranks 71st by debt-to-GDP and Grenada 58th. Measured per person, Germany is 18th and Grenada 71st.

Analysis

By total government debt, Germany ranks 7th and Grenada 177th among the 194 sovereigns tracked on this site.

On a per-citizen basis the picture can look different from the nominal totals: a resident's notional share of the government debt in Germany is roughly 4.7× that in Grenada ($41,847 vs $8,858 per person).

The debt-to-GDP picture is asymmetric here: Grenada sits at 69% of GDP, above Germany's 63%, meaning Grenada owes far more relative to the size of its own economy — even where the nominal, dollar-for-dollar comparison above suggests otherwise.

The IMF puts Germany at 47% of GDP net of financial assets, and publishes no net debt figure for Grenada. Germany spends about 1.8% of government revenue on net interest ($43.9 billion in 2025), and Grenada about 11% ($52 million in 2025). See the full interest ranking.

The gap between them is widening: Germany's debt is growing faster in dollar terms ($10K/sec vs $0.58/sec for Grenada), adding roughly $895,658,688 to the difference each day.

Scale is part of the story too: Germany's population (83M) is about 712.4× Grenada's (0M), which is part of why the nominal and per-capita comparisons above can point in different directions — a government's debt load scales loosely with the size of both its economy and its population, not either alone.
