History reference:
The Chinese Yuan is the official currency of the Peoples Republic of China. Until the beginning of the 20th century, in China, for large-scale settlements, they used silver ingots - lyans. Small purc...hases were made using bronze round coins with a square hole in the center - qian, which Europeans call "keshi". Silver yuan began to be made in 1835. The use of silver coins and silver liang was banned in China in 1935. Instead, a boom in paper money began to grow - fabi. A certain easing in monetary policy occurred only in 2005, when the Chinese authorities carried out a revaluation of the yuan, raising its value by 2%. By 2008, the yuan appreciated by more than 20% to 6.82 yuan per US dollar. Nevertheless, even today, the PRC continues to enjoy certain foreign trade advantages, which are based on the undervalued exchange rate of the national currency.

However, today it has been proven that the ruble, for some reason, owes its name to the ancient technology of coin production. At first, the ruble was in the form of a coin with a certain amount of precious metal. But in 1769, the first paper money appeared. On modern Russian banknotes, architectural monuments of different cities of the country are depicted: on the front side of the banknote with a face value of 5 thousand - a monument to Muravyov-Amursky in Khabarovsk, on the back - a bridge across the Amur
