The Franc in Africa is interesting, so many countries share the same currency there.
Also surprising to me is British East Africa. Some call it the "shilling" and some call it the "pound".
It's also etymologically interesting that the word "shilling" comes from the Old Norse, meaning "division" according to the map. And that's interesting because that's what online shills do today is divide people.

IMO money is a controlled trust system that does divide people, instead of individuals in communities trusting each other (which takes work, learning, and communication).

Poland was slated to join the eurozone over a decade ago, just before the euro crisis. They really dodged a bullet there.

Oh is that right? I didn't know that. They sure did. Poland is pretty based. They've been traumatized by every side of every war, they pretty much just look out for themselves anymore, and I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

The peso and the franc are almost the same color
