The Croatian kuna is the national currency of Croatia (denoted as HRK or Kn). Croatia (officially the Republic of Croatia) is a state located in Southwestern Europe in the northwest of the Balkan Pen...insula. Croatia is bordered to the west by Slovenia, to the north by Hungary, to the east by Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, and in the area of the enclave of Dubrovnik and Montenegro. From the southwest, the territory of Croatia is washed by the waters of the Adriatic Sea. Today, banknotes of 5-1000 kunas and coins of 1-25 kunas, 1-50 lipas are used in circulation. The Republic of Croatia wants to join the EU, but is not yet ready to abandon its banknote in favor of the euro. Local authorities have long been deciding how to name the national currency. The chosen name “kuna” is not accidental, it comes from “marten”, it was her skins that were previously used for payment. The same animal adorns the coins of the country. HRK appeared in circulation in 1994 instead of the Croatian dinar, which appeared in 1991 as a result of secession from Yugoslavia. Since 1995, the kuna has remained the only national currency in Croatia.

History reference:
The monetary unit of Morocco is the Moroccan dirham. The history of the national currency of Morocco is as interesting as the historical path of the kingdom itself. Despite the fact that the current ...currency in the country began to be used relatively recently, the history of the monetary system in this country is very old. Until 1921, the Moroccan rial was used in monetary circulation in Morocco. After 1921, the Moroccan rial is replaced by the Moroccan franc at the rate of 1 rial = 5 francs. In 1956, France recognized the independence of Morocco and reunified with Spanish Morocco, as a result of which the Spanish peseta was introduced into the money circulation in the ratio of 10 francs = 1 peseta. In 1960, the Moroccan dirham was introduced, consisting of 100 francs, and in 1974 the franc was replaced by a centime.
