History
The Satavian guilder was introduced on January 1, 1943 as the decimalised replacement to the Satavian shilling. The shilling had utilised the £sd system, as was common in former colonies and territories of Estmere, which by 1943 was regarded as complicated and obsolete. The Satavian shilling remained legal tender in Satavia until January 1, 1946. The shilling was introduced by the National party government of Christiaan Pienaar. The National party had launched a coup in February 1939 that had removed the democratically elected government of Edward Limes, and as part of the new government's programme of "decolonisation" (Satavia had only achieved independence from Estmere in 1936) decimilisation of shilling was introduced. The currency was renamed the Guilder (as it had been before Estmere seized control of Satavia in 1747) and was initially pegged to the Estmerish shilling at par, before it was devalued in 1959 to £1 = G1.5
