The Gabiro is the currency of Gabrielland issued by the Central Bank of Gabrielland and Arsya. It is one of the 4 currencies of the Dokodo Union, and Gabrielland is bound to adopt the Quasa once it fulfills the necessary requirements to join the Quasa Zone.
It was introduced in 1926 as the new currency of the recently formed union of Gabrielland and Arsya, replacing the Gabrielt Taga and the Arsyan Lirtta. The name Gabiro was agreed upon in the first parliamentary meeting of the union on the 19th of April 1926 as a combination of the Gabrielt word gaba meaning "money" and the Arsyan word kvirro, also meaning money. In 1976, the Dzakwanist government abolished money, and the Gabrio ceased to become legal tender in Dzakwanist Gabrielland. It was kept as the official currency of the newly-formed Arsyan Republic until the 1st of January 1977 until it was replaced by the Arsyan Lirtta, which would become the currency until 1985 when it was replaced with the Convertible Lirtta. The Gabiro was reintroduced on the 1st of January 2000, replacing the Convertible Lirtta at par. Due to high rates of inflation sustained during the civil war and the Arsyan Republic period, the Gabiro underwent redenomination in 2009, with 1 new Gabiro being equal to 100 old Gabiros.

8th series (2009)
The 8th series of the Gabiro was the first banknote family to be issued after redenomination. The number of denominations was slimmed down from 8 to 6, omitting ɢ.5, ɢ.10, ɢ.5000, and ɢ.10,000 (formerly ɢ.500, ɢ.1000, ɢ.500,000, and ɢ.1,000,000) while including new denominations of ɢ.200 and ɢ.2000 (formerly ɢ.20,000 and ɢ.200,000). The banknotes feature prominent Gabrielt and Arsyan poets, playrights, and other artists, celebrating their works and contribution towards the richness of Gabrielt culture and society on the obverse and selected Gabrielt landscapes and locations on the reverse. The banknotes have a more modern and updated look when compared to the 7th series
9th "Sontuvian" series (2017)
The 9th series of the Gabiro, more colloquiall known as the "Sontuvian" series after Finance Minister Gahttari Sontuvia, was first commissioned by the Central Bank of Gabrielland and Arsya around October of 2012, with a press report dated 15 October 2012 detailing the central bank's plan to further increase the safety and security of the Gabiro, as well as to keep the fresh look of the Gabiro. The ɢ.5000 bill was reintroduced while the ɢ.50 bill was omitted, instead being replaced by a trimetallic coin. Although released in 2017, notes still bear "2013" when the official bills were signed into law.
The series maintains the denominations found in previous bill, and carries the imprint "2013-2017".
