About Norwegian Krone (kr)
The Norwegian Krone (NOK, ISO 4217 code 578, symbol kr) is the official currency of Norway, Svalbard, Jan Mayen, and Bouvet Island, issued by Norges Bank (est. 1816). Subdivided into 100 øre (no longer in physical circulation since 2012). Banknotes: 50 kr, 100 kr, 200 kr, 500 kr, 1000 kr (a current series featuring marine themes — lighthouses, ships, fish, the Gulf Stream — by Norwegian artist Snøhetta + Metric Design); coins: 1 kr, 5 kr, 10 kr, 20 kr. NOK is a 'commodity currency' heavily correlated with North Sea Brent crude oil prices — Norway is Western Europe's largest oil + gas producer (~2 million bpd oil, ~120 bcm/yr natural gas). Norway also holds the world's largest sovereign wealth fund — the Government Pension Fund Global (GPFG, often called 'Oil Fund') manages ~$1.6 trillion AUM as of 2024, owning ~1.5% of every public company globally. Norges Bank targets 2% CPI inflation. Norway is in EEA but not EU and has its own currency.
About Uruguayan Peso ($U)
The Uruguayan Peso (UYU, ISO 4217 code 858, symbol $U or simply $) is the official currency of the Eastern Republic of Uruguay, issued by the Banco Central del Uruguay (BCU, est. 1967). Subdivided into 100 centésimos (no longer in physical circulation). Banknotes: $20, $50, $100, $200, $500, $1,000, $2,000 (the highest denomination, introduced 2015; current series features Uruguayan historical figures — Juan Manuel Blanes the painter, Eduardo Acevedo Vásquez, Joaquín Torres García, Florencio Sánchez, José Pedro Varela, Susana Soca, Idea Vilariño); coins: 1 peso, 2 pesos, 5 pesos, 10 pesos, 50 pesos. Uruguay is South America's smallest Spanish-speaking country (~3.4 million population) and one of Latin America's most-developed economies (~$80B GDP) — Uruguay consistently ranks #1 in Latin America for Democracy Index, Corruption Perceptions Index, Press Freedom, and Economic Freedom. The country abolished income tax, legalized cannabis (the first country to do so nationally, in 2013), abolished same-sex marriage prohibitions (2013), and legalized abortion (2012) — all under President José 'Pepe' Mujica's broad social-democratic agenda. Major exports include beef (Uruguay is the world's largest per-capita beef producer), soybeans, dairy products, rice, and cellulose pulp. BCU has gradually shifted to inflation-targeting framework.
