Converting from Croatian Kuna (HRK) to Mauritanian Ouguiya (MRU)

What is Croatian Kuna (HRK)?

The Croatian Kuna (HRK) is the official currency of Croatia. It was introduced in 1994, replacing the Yugoslav dinar. The name "kuna" comes from the word for "marten," an animal that was historically used in trade. The currency is subdivided into 100 lipas, and it is represented by the symbol "kn."

The Kuna has a paper-based and a coin-based currency system. The banknotes are available in denominations of 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, and 1,000 kuna. Each banknote features notable figures, cultural icons, and landmarks from Croatia’s rich history. The coins come in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, and 50 lipas, as well as 1, 2, and 5 kuna.

Croatia is a member of the European Union (EU), and while it is preparing to adopt the Euro as its official currency, the Kuna continues to be in circulation. The exchange rate between the Kuna and other currencies fluctuates based on market conditions, economic stability, and political factors.

What is Mauritanian Ouguiya (MRU)?

The Mauritanian Ouguiya (MRU) is the currency of Mauritania, a country located in West Africa. The Ouguiya was introduced in 1973, replacing the Mauritanian pound. The word "ouguiya" is derived from a local term that refers to a precious stone used historically as a unit of account in trade. The current symbol for the Ouguiya is "UM," and it is subdivided into 5 khoums (also known as "khoums" in the local vernacular).

The Ouguiya has a variable denomination of banknotes and coins. Banknotes are available in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, and 500 Ouguiyas. On the other hand, coins typically come in smaller denominations, such as 1, 5, 10, 20, and 50 Ouguiyas.

Mauritania's economy is primarily based on agriculture, mining, and fishing, and the stability of the Ouguiya can be influenced by factors such as commodity prices, foreign investment, and geopolitical conditions in the region. As a result, the exchange rate of the Ouguiya against other currencies, such as the Kuna, can be quite variable.
