The Amenrian Cicis (Chinese: 奇奇斯; pinyin: Qíqísī; Sundanese: ᮎᮤᮎᮤᮞ᮪, symbol: ₡; ISO code: AMC; also abbreviated as AM₡), is the official currency of the Empire of Amenria. Both the ISO code "AMC" and currency symbol "₡" are commonly used and both follow the value. The currency is often referred to or translated as the "Amenrian cash", "Amenrian coinage", or "Amenrian money", as Cicis literally means "money" in Sundanese. One Cicis is divided into 100 Artos, another Sundanese word for "money". Denominations are colloquially referred to by their colours, such as the 100 Cicis note being referred to as "blacks" and the 20 Cicis note being referred to as "blues". The 100 Cicis note is also affectionally nicknamed the "little black boy" (Chinese: 小黑孩儿; pinyin: Xiǎo hēi hái'ér).
The Cicis is one of the most traded currencies in the foreign exchange market, competing for this spot with the Ascionese Artos. Following the Third World War, the Cicis became the single most reserved currency in global reserves, replacing the US Dollar.
