Some other AAA countries: Switzerland, Luxembourg, Norway, Singapore.
To me it seems a little ridiculous that the US and these countries shared the same rating for such a long time. On the other hand, there are AAA countries like UK, France, Germany that do not seem to fit into the same category either.
I have no real opinion if the US deserves the AAA rating, but thinking treasuries are the safest investment in the world seems a bit optimistic.
