Paper currency or banknotes are pieces of paper that carry a payment promise for the currency written on them and which is payable to the bearer on demand. At the beginning, banknotes were issued by commercial banks that backed their value by holding reserves of gold and silver coins. Nowadays, its value is fiduciary, it is not backed by any physical good of the same value.

The development of paper currency by Song's dinasty meant a considerable improvement from merchants and traders at those times. Paper money was much easier to transport if compared to coins, both in terms of size and weight. Merchants could travel for a longer time carrying their profits with them on the way and became more efficient in their businesses.

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

East Germany: the Soviet Union

West Germany: the US

Explanation:

The Cold War was a period of fierce tension, mainly between the US and the Soviet Union but also in general between democracy and communism. In fact, after WWII, the Soviet Union and the US decided to split up Germany as war spoils, but each country had its own idea of how their share should be governed. East Germany was controlled by the Soviet Union, under a dictating communist power, while West Germany was controlled by the US with a more democratic approach.
