Trivia: Which country uses the ruble as its currency?
Austria
Chile
Russia
Ethiopia
The correct answer is Russia
So why is this answer correct? : Peter the Great began the regular minting of the silver ruble in 1704, and the gold ruble was later introduced in 1897. During the Russian Revolution, the ruble’s value depreciated greatly and for a short time, the legal currency was switched to the “chervonets ruble.” After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the “Russian ruble” replaced the “Soviet ruble.” Similar to other currencies, the ruble is divided into 100 parts, called “kopecks.”
