Until Euro came, money was more like national symbol

Yeah, it's unique in that regard. The rest are more "classy".

No, you must've mixed things up. Sounds are similar (shto, sto) - but sto means 100.

Before Euro we had rubles.

I like that one, who is this man?

russia had the first decimalised currency in the world

Pencho Slaveykov, an influential poet.
The thing text written on the note is an excerpt from something he has written.

Here is the first Finnish markka bank note from the 1800s, from Russian Grand Duchy of Finland.

>Finland always looked upon Germany for inspiration.
Not Sweden?

Well both to be honest but Finland never had official ties to German in the way it had to Sweden

However all Finnish intellectuals followed the doings of Germans closely

everybody hated the Euro from the beginning and that never really changed.

It was back then.

They fucked up with these ones. Literally adding a 200 note for equality

I find that hard to believe. Do you have anything to back that up?

But the 200 note saves tons of space and reducestransportation costs. It's the most used note at the moment followed by the 20 and 500.

Also I work as a historian. Our entire language was different just a few generations ago.

Interesting.

It is.
Here's some examples of texts from the years. All in Swedish.

Or a little more modern
Sommarnatten - 1804

Himmel, hvilken avfton, hvilken färd!
Ser du holmens lilla blomsterverld?
Goda Nana, i allt dess lunder
Sjunga fåglar qvällens under;
Hvila rodden; låt oss vagga
Dit i land.
Solen ler ju än från kullen,
Vfikens bölja gungar jullen,
Aftonvinden för vår flagga
Mot dess strand.

Modern Swedish is very young.

lmao who the fuck gives a shit.
stop attention whoring, currency has always been a national symbol for every country that has existed, not just for Finland you idiot

Is wasabi good?
