International Currency

    • International Currency

      The international currency consists of two currencies.
      The currency for the "normal" population is Desta(DD) with the subunit Dumis(D) [1DD => 100D]. Most times, the currency is displayed as a comma with two decimal places (for example 1,01DD (=> 1DD & 1D)). The names of this currency is inspired from the currencies of the Roman Empire (Desta: combination of Denar and Sesterz; Dumis: combination of Dupondius and Semis)
      The other currency, the Wizarding-Currency, is Galleon(G) with the subunits Sickle(S) and Knut(K) [1G => 17S => 493K].
