The Eldmarkian Krona is the official currency of Eldmark, issued by the Riksbank Eldmark.

History

The The name “Krona” is Ordennyan for "crown.” From the time of Ordennyan colonial rule, the Krona was used as a currency, in silver form, using the silver standard of valuation. When the Ordennyan government abolished the monarchy and Eldmark subsequently declared independence, the currency lost a significant amount of value and, for a brief time, the Eldmarkian royalty issued the Papperkrona, a currency not backed by silver or gold, only on the credibility of the Crown. Shortly after the Krona was reintroduced to the silver standard. After the Great War, the currency was switched to a fiat currency with a floating exchange rate.

Until 1992, the krona was subdivided into 100 öre. After the Sales Tax Act of 1992, all purchases are instead rounded up to the nearest krona with notable exception to small purchases under K5.

Exchange rate

The Riksbank Eldmark, Eldmark's central bank, manages the exchange rate of the krona in times of economic issue, therefore giving the currency in that time period a managed float exchange rate.

The advantages that Eldmark reaps from having a floating/managed float exchange rate is primarily the ability for it to absorb immediate economic shock or currency crisises, while allowing for the Riksbank to intervene if needed.
