Alien friendo: So you don't have a singular currency, but instead multiple different kinds?
Human: Uh, yeah? Different cultures come with different money systems I guess. The different societies didn't really come into contact with each other until the 1800s
Alien friendo: But why not have a single one afterwards? Isn't the conversion process tiring?
Human: Oh absolutely but many countries like to hold onto their history by keeping their money the same.
Alien friendo: But why? It's not efficient. At all.
Human: *shrugs* It is the way it is because it is. I've got nothing.
Alien friendo: *various noises of confusion* *mutters under breath* Ineffcient flesh bags is what it is
