The countries of circulation are the Republic of Azerbaijan. The Azerbaijani manat became the national currency of the Republic in 1992. In November 1993, all tickets were withdrawn from circulation,... and in January 1994 the Azerbaijani manat received the status of a single means of payment. Putting into circulation in 1992, initially on a par with Soviet and then Russian rubles, largely influenced the status and purchasing value. Concomitant negative factors, which were first general political instability, and then the military conflict with neighboring Armenia, caused hyperinflation. As a result, by the beginning of 2006, the Central Bank of the country made a decision on the denomination, which turned out to be very successful in terms of further strengthening and stabilizing the exchange rate.

History reference:
The Vietnamese dong has been the national currency of the united Vietnam since 1978 and has been on the forex market to this day. In northern Vietnam, the dong appeared earlier - in 1947, in the Sout...h - a little later - in 1955 (also called "free dong"). In 1887, Vietnam became a colony of France, and from December 22, 1896, the French Indochina piastre was used as a currency in the country, which was equal to the silver Mexican peso and had 24.4935 g of pure silver. From May 1947, North Vietnam began issuing the dong of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam. The exchange rate of piastre to dong was 1:1. But the piaster was used in parallel with the dong in North Vietnam until November 1954. South Vietnam on September 22, 1955 announced the cessation of the use of piastre as a currency and, a month later, on October 15, the issue of banknotes of the National Bank of Vietnam in dongs began. An interesting fact is that on a banknote of 200 Vietnamese dong in 1987, a Belarus tractor is depicted.
