Money is not the most important thing in the world. Love is. Fortunately, I love money - Jackie Mason
Welcome to the 7th post of the "Memories from the Bank Vault" series (at the end of this post you can find links to previous episodes).
This time we travel to a country that is, at the same time, very young and very old.
We go to Kyrgyzstan or the Kyrgyz Republic, as it is officially called, or also Kirghizia a sovereign state in Central Asia.
Kyrgyzstan has borders with Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, China, and Uzbekistan. Its capital is Bishkek.
Kyrgyzstan - 1 Tyiyn Banknote - Obverse
This country has a millennial history being once part of the Silk Road and other important commercial routes. After the breakup of the Soviet Union, in 1991 it gained independency.
With a population of approximately 6 million, Kyrgyz culture enjoys elements of Mongolian, Persian and Russian influence.
Kyrgyzstan - 1 Tyiyn Banknote - Reverse
The currency of the Kyrgyz Republic is called Som (abbreviation: KGS) and it is divided into 100 Tyiyn.
