Live side-by-side comparison of government debt. China currently owes about 1632.7× more — a gap of $19.66 trillion. Updated every second from IMF baselines.
By total government debt, Georgia ranks 113th-largest and China ranks 2nd-largest among the 137 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 national debt in China is roughly 4.3× that in Georgia ($13,961 vs $3,256 per person).
The debt-to-GDP picture is asymmetric here: China sits at 96% of GDP, well above Georgia's 34%, meaning China owes far more relative to the size of its own economy — even where the nominal, dollar-for-dollar comparison above suggests otherwise.
The gap between them is widening: China's debt is growing faster in dollar terms ($25K/sec vs $24/sec for Georgia), adding roughly $2,157,926,400 to the difference each day.
Scale is part of the story too: China's population (1.41B) is about 380.8× Georgia's (4M), 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.
