Its issuance and value have been heavily influenced by the country’s political changes and oil-dependent economy, leading to significant volatility and multiple exchange rates in recent decades.
Tripoli
Tripoli is the capital and largest city of Libya, with a history dating back to the 7th century BC when it was founded by the Phoenicians. It later became a significant Roman city and a major port under various rulers, including the Ottomans and Italians, which is reflected in its historic medina and Red Castle (Assaraya al-Hamra).
Benghazi
Benghazi is a major city in eastern Libya, historically significant as a center of trade and culture since its founding as the Greek colony of Euesperides. It played a pivotal role in the 2011 Libyan Civil War as a key base for the uprising against Muammar Gaddafi.

British Pound Sterling
The British Pound Sterling, often simply called the pound, is the official currency of the United Kingdom and is the world’s oldest currency still in use, with origins tracing back over 1,200 years. Its history is deeply tied to the British Empire’s economic power, and it remains a major global reserve currency despite the UK’s adoption of decimalisation in 1971.
Turkey
Turkey is a transcontinental nation bridging Europe and Asia, with a rich history rooted in the ancient civilizations of Anatolia and later as the heart of the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires. Its modern identity was forged as a republic in 1923 under Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, blending its deep historical legacy with a contemporary secular state. Key cultural sites include the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, a monument that has served as a cathedral, mosque, and museum, reflecting the country’s layered historical and religious heritage.
Dubai
Dubai is a major global city and emirate in the United Arab Emirates, historically known as a small fishing and pearling village.

It was introduced in 1844, replacing the Ottoman *kuruş*, and has undergone several revaluations, most notably in 2005 when the “new Turkish lira” removed six zeros from its predecessor due to prolonged high inflation.
Jordanian Dinar
