Fanery is the traditional money used in Madagascar == Definition == The word "Fanery" has its origins in the local dialects spoken in Southern Madagascar. These differ considerably from the official "Malagache" dialects spoken by the local tribesmen Of Bara, Antanosy and Mahafaly. Fanery, as will be seen from the picture above, have a basic shape not unlike the modern AIDS symbol. They exist in silver, copper, nickel and aluminium and are found in various sizes. Prior to French colonization, mining in Madagascar was non-existent. As a result metals of all kinds were in extremely short supply, and to manufacture Fanery the makers had to resort to melting the foreign coins (mostly French) that had been introduced into the territory over the previous 200 years. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fanery」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
