About Russian Ruble
The ruble or rouble is the currency of the Russian Federation. Banknotes and coins are issued by the Central Bank of Russia, which is Russia's monetary authority independent of all other government bodies.
The ruble is the second-oldest currency in continuous use and the first decimal currency. The ruble was the currency of the Russian Empire, which was replaced by the Soviet ruble during the Soviet period. Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, by 1992, the Soviet ruble was replaced in the Russian Federation by the Russian ruble at par. The Russian ruble then further continued to be used in 11 post-Soviet states, forming a "ruble zone" until 1993. The ruble was further redenominated with the new code "RUB" just preceding the 1998 Russian financial crisis, and was exchanged at the rate of 1,000 RUR = 1 RUB.
As of April 2019, the ruble was the 17th-most traded currency in the world; however, due to international sanctions, the ruble dropped to being the 34th-most traded currency in the world as of April 2022. The ruble is subdivided into 100 kopecks which have fallen out of use due to inflation. In 2023, the digital ruble was introduced. WikipediaAbout Lebanese pound
The lira or pound is the currency of Lebanon. It was formerly divided into 100 piastres but, because of high inflation during the Lebanese Civil War, subunits were discontinued.
The plural of lira is either lirat or invariant, whilst there are four forms for qirsh: the dual qirshān used with number 2, the plural qurush used with numbers 3–10, the accusative singular qirshan used with 11–99, and the genitive singular qirsh used with multiples of 100. The number determines which plural form is used. All of Lebanon's coins and banknotes are bilingual in Arabic and French.
From December 1997 through January 2023, the exchange rate was fixed at LL 1,507.50 per US dollar. However, since the 2020 economic crisis in Lebanon, exchange at this rate was generally unavailable, and an informal currency market developed with much higher exchange rates. On 1 February 2023, the Central Bank reset the currency peg at LL 15,000 per US dollar. By mid-March 2023, the "parallel market" rate had fallen to LL 100,000 per dollar. Wikipedia
