History reference:
The Moldovan leu is the currency of Moldova. The Moldovan leu became the national currency of Moldova in late autumn 1993. Despite the large number of economic reforms and political upheavals that th...e Republic of Moldova experienced during the years of its independence, its money has changed little. The main role in the internal and external markets of the Moldavian Principality was played by foreign silver and gold coins: ducats, florins, zlotys and others. In the 17th century, the Dutch coin “leeuwendaalder”, which depicted a lion, also penetrated the Balkans and Moldova. The inhabitants of Moldova called these coins lei. In 1867, this name was given to the currency of Romania, and after the collapse of the USSR, the monetary unit of Moldova. The Bulgarian lev has exactly the same etymology.

The Sudanese pound is the national currency of the Republic of Sudan, temporary for the Republic of South Sudan. In addition, along with the Egyptian pound, it acts as the currency of the Halayib Tri...angle. The territory of Sudan covers most of the African savannah in the geographic region of the same name in the valley of the upper Nile River, as well as the eastern part of the Darfur and Kordofan plateaus. In the northeast of the territory of Sudan, the Nubian Desert extends, adjacent to the coast of the Red Sea. The territory of Sudan is almost 1 million 900 thousand square kilometers. Until 1957, the Egyptian pound was used as a means of payment in Sudan. In April of the same year, at a 1:1 exchange rate, the Egyptian pound was replaced by the Sudanese pound. The 1957 Sudanese pound was used in circulation until 1992. On June 8, 1992, the government of Sudan carries out a monetary reform, as a result of which the Sudanese pound is replaced by the Sudanese dinar at an exchange rate of 10 pounds = 1 dinar.
