Not all the countries are in debt, just some of them. The money is still there. It didn't disappear or go anywhere.

What does third world debt mean?

Third world debt means the debt of the US Parliament. No, no it refers to the money which the richer nations of the world have loaned to the nations of the Third World. The First World, if you like, is the old established European nations which became the colonisers of the world. The new World is the Americas, north & south. The Third World are the countries of Asia & Africa which, so far, have not been pre-eminent in economic power. For example, China & India are rapidly no longer going to be in the Third World because of massive economic growth. Japan has a powerful economy, as has Singapore. Zimbabwe on the other hand is now amongst the poorest of nations. it is a very debatable point whether those of us that live in wealthy nations should loan these countries money at all. Personally I believe we should simply give them all the aid we can. It is pointless asking someone who has little wealth to repay a loan they cannot afford to take in the first place. Which is exactly what 'Freddie Mac & Fanny May' have done with the US economy which is why we are now all in the doo doo. But that is a different Q altogether.

What was the effect of the national debt?

The size of the US's national debt is a vital piece of the economical health of not only the USA but of all nations participating in world trade and economics. I'll focus on the USA's national debt. Generally speaking a small national debt helps the USA's economy in a few ways. Based on the USA's position in the world as a major player in world economics and yes, it's military strength, a small national debt means that taxes in the USA, whether income taxes or other Federal taxes, need not be raised to pay the principal and interest of the national debt. Another positive feature of a small national debt is that the USA can issue bonds on the free market to raise money in a smooth manner as the small debt is one indicator that the USA's finances are in good order. This also directly affects the amount of interest that Government bonds need to pay the buyers of Government bonds. The USA's ability to help the economies of other nations is enhanced when the USA can borrow funds to help their economies. Thus, the amount of foreign aid the USA can lend or grant to other nations for good reasons not frivolous ones, is increased.
