No matter what era, money is the most important thing. With money, you can do many things, such as jumping from the train to the plane, reducing your travel time and going to more places you want. With money, you can eat delicious food from all over the world, even the most expensive Almas caviar in the world can be eaten as dessert. For us, if we can have money, As poor as money? If so, what a happy thing it would be.
However, although we can't realize this wish, there is a person from a country in the world who has realized it instead of us. This is really poor and only money is left. It is understood that almost every household in this country has assets of hundreds of millions of yuan. Even if you take a bus, the driver never counts. No humanity? .
this is also a country located in southeast Africa? Zimbabwe, a landlocked country, became independent in 198. Like many landlocked countries, Zimbabwe is still the least developed country in the world because of its poor export trade. Then why is it said that Zimbabwe is a country with only money left? This has to start from the last century to the years of this century.
As early as the beginning of this century, Zimbabwe experienced a very vicious inflation. The so-called inflation can be understood in this way. Once something becomes more and more, it will become very worthless. Take our daily things as an example. The way to obtain water is very easy, so water is very cheap, and it costs a few dollars. Compared with gold, the price of water is much cheaper, which is inflation.
At that time, Zimbabwe's currency, Zimbabwe Coin, was one of the biggest victims. Because Zimbabwe has been printing banknotes, the price of Zimbabwe Coin has been decreasing until it becomes worthless today. As early as 29, after Zimbabwe replaced the US dollar and the South African rand, Zimbabwe's inflation began to stabilize slowly.
It is precisely because of this that the value of Zimbabwean currency is not much different from ordinary paper in an instant. Many people are reluctant to throw away the currency, for fear that Zimbabwean currency will suddenly come back in value. Therefore, in almost every household in Zimbabwe, you can see bundles of banknotes saved by them. Although these are worthless, according to the banknote value of Zimbabwean currency, these households are hundreds of millions of assets.
Of course, some people take out Zimbabwean coins and sell them after they don't believe them. If you have been to Zimbabwe, you will definitely see such a scene, that is, a bunch of people selling their Zimbabwean coins on the street. What? Money for money? The transaction method makes many tourists feel novel and inexpensive. If you want to buy it, one dollar is estimated to buy a large bundle of banknotes.
As a matter of fact, Zimbabwe has strictly prohibited the way of selling banknotes in this way. However, people in our country are so poor that they are not so strict. If you are a native, you can use Zimbabwean currency, provided that you can carry it. According to the market value, if you want to take a bus, you may have to push a car's banknotes before you can get on the bus. If the driver sees such a large bundle of tickets, he is naturally unwilling to count them.
When Zimbabwe's economy was slightly profitable, the economic difficulties in 16 years intensified again, which led to the gradual closure of the Zimbabwean government. Today, Zimbabwe has owed more than 1 billion US dollars in foreign debt. Although Zimbabwe is slowly accepting the assistance from the United Nations, I don't know when this amount of money will end.
I wonder what you think? Zimbabwe is a country in the southeast of Africa. Apart from these interesting things, Zimbabwe is not a country worth visiting. If you are interested in Africa, you might as well travel to South Africa or some developed countries.
