About Icelandic Krona (kr)
The Icelandic Króna (ISK, ISO 4217 code 352, symbol kr) is the official currency of Iceland, issued by the Central Bank of Iceland (Seðlabanki Íslands, est. 1961). Subdivided into 100 aurar (singular: eyrir, plural: aurar — no longer in circulation since 2003). Banknotes: kr500 (poetess Jónas Hallgrímsson), kr1,000 (Bishop Brynjólfur Sveinsson), kr2,000 (painter Jóhannes Sveinsson Kjarval), kr5,000 (suffragist Ragnheiður Jónsdóttir), kr10,000 (poet Jónas Hallgrímsson, introduced October 2013 — the highest denomination); coins: kr1, kr5, kr10, kr50, kr100. The króna was famously the only OECD national currency to declare formal default during the Global Financial Crisis — Iceland's three largest banks (Glitnir, Landsbanki, Kaupthing) collapsed October 2008, ISK lost ~50% of its value, and Iceland imposed capital controls (lifted gradually 2016-2017). Iceland is not in the EU (twice rejected EU accession — 2002 referendum, 2013 accession freeze under PM Gunnlaugsson) and uses ISK as its sole legal tender. The Seðlabanki targets 2.5% CPI inflation per the Inflation-Targeting framework adopted March 2001. Iceland has ~390,000 population and is one of the world's wealthiest per-capita nations.
About UAE Dirham (د.إ)
The United Arab Emirates Dirham (AED, ISO 4217 code 784, symbol د.إ or DH) is the official currency of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), issued by the Central Bank of the UAE (CBUAE, est. 1980). Subdivided into 100 fils. Banknotes: AED5, AED10, AED20, AED50, AED100, AED200, AED500, AED1000 (the highest denomination; current series features UAE landmarks — Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, Burj Al Arab, Dubai Frame, Etihad Towers, Sharjah Central Souk, Khalifa Tower); coins: 25 fils, 50 fils, AED1. AED is pegged to USD at AED3.6725 per USD since November 1997 (a hard peg via the CBUAE Currency Board mechanism). UAE is the Gulf region's most economically diversified economy — Dubai is a major global financial center (DIFC) and trade hub, Abu Dhabi holds ~95% of UAE oil reserves (the world's 7th-largest proven reserves at ~98 billion barrels per BP Statistical Review). The UAE Dirham was introduced 1973, replacing the Bahraini Dinar (in Abu Dhabi) and Qatar + Dubai Riyal (in other emirates) after the UAE federation formed 1971.
