Ethiopian birr : ウィキペディア英語版 | Ethiopian birr
The birr ((アムハラ語:ብር)) is the unit of currency in Ethiopia. Before 1976, ''dollar'' was the official English translation of ''birr''. Today, it is officially ''birr'' in English as well. In 1931, the Emperor of Ethiopia, Haile Selassie I, formally requested that the international community use the name ''Ethiopia'' (as it had already been known internally for at least 1600 years) instead of ''Abyssinia'', and the issuing ''Bank of Abyssinia'' also became the ''Bank of Ethiopia''. Thus, the pre-1931 currency could be considered the ''Abyssinian birr'' and the post-1931 currency the Ethiopian ''birr'', although it was the same country and the same currency before and after. 186 billion birr were in circulation in 2008 ($14.7 billion or €9.97 billion). ==History==
