Analysis

By total government debt, Morocco ranks 53rd and China 2nd among the 135 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 China is roughly 4.6× that in Morocco ($15,611 vs $3,385 per person).

The debt-to-GDP picture is asymmetric here: China sits at 99% of GDP, well above Morocco's 67%, 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 ($99K/sec vs $249/sec for Morocco), adding roughly $8,560,425,600 to the difference each day.

Scale is part of the story too: China's population (1.40B) is about 36.8× Morocco's (38M), 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.
