About Bulgarian Lev
The Bulgarian Lev (BGN) is the official currency of Bulgaria, with a history dating to 1880 when it replaced the Turkish piastre after Bulgaria's liberation. The word "lev" means "lion" in Bulgarian. Following a severe financial crisis in 1996-1997, a currency board was established and the lev was pegged first to the Deutsche Mark and then to the Euro at 1.95583 BGN per EUR. Bulgaria is an EU member since 2007 and is working towards adopting the Euro. The Bulgarian National Bank issues the lev, which is divided into 100 stotinki.
About Cambodian Riel
The Cambodian Riel (KHR) is the official currency of Cambodia but exists in an unusual dual-currency environment where the US Dollar is widely used alongside the riel for most large transactions. The riel was reintroduced in 1980 after the Khmer Rouge abolished currency entirely between 1975 and 1979 - one of only two instances in modern history where a national currency was completely abolished. The National Bank of Cambodia manages monetary policy. Cambodia's economy has grown rapidly, fuelled by garment exports, tourism, and construction.
