Nero (currency)

Nero (K) is the official currency of Kuboia. Its subunit is called a rok or rox (c), with a hundred rox making one nero.

Prior to its establishment as an independent country, Kuboia used the Jetin as its currency, though it was later revealed in 1984 that Kuboia would be receiving its own currency by 1987. The nero was given a soft launch on 1st January 1986 before becoming the official currency of the country on 30th March 1987.

The currency's name is derived from the Spanish term "dinero" meaning "money", which itself is derived from the name of the currency of Christian states of Spain in the 10th century. Trevor Reef was inspired to choose the name after learning about Spanish history from Antonia Morales, who was at the time a campaigner whom Reef had acquainted with. Morales herself was given the opportunity to pick the name of its subunit, choosing "rox" after the silver coins of change she would normally carry.
