Just because its shape vaguely resembles a 2, that doesn’t mean that the country is called “2”. It’s actually called 3.
Yeah but it’s pronounced “Two”
It depends. The south accent makes it sound like “five”.
It’s a big country, lots of cultural differences. Unfortunately the education system is pretty bad here.
The only country name we’ve learnt to spell is Portugal. We’re pretty bad at all the others.
- Constant viking raids throughout most of history
- Nowadays we get a lot of shipwrecked yachts and other pleasure vessels
- Very low taxes in the northernmost province, very high taxes in the bit next to portugal.
- Similarly to ireland we have very low taxes for corporations. Ireland tends to attract more business this way because billionaires face persistant looting when they settle down in 2. It’s just in our culture.
I used to live on the 2’s Sharpie Cove, right as the two seas would smash together into one. The storms were immense, but it was the only point on the entire damn island free of seagulls
So does the water go the opposite way in Australia or not?!
It falls upwards out of the toilet
It’s not two bad.
Why do euros, mexican pesos and peruvian soles have the same design? Grey/silver outer ring with a gold center
Bi-metallic design is mainly used to make the coins harder to counterfeit, to make it more expensive to counterfeit than the coin’s value
To elaborate, it’s really easy to forge “regular” coins and really attractive to forge high value coins.
For example, the 1 British Pound coin was, before the redesign, widely forged:
As of March 2014 there were an estimated 1,553 million of the original nickel-brass coins in circulation,[6] of which the Royal Mint estimated in 2014 that just over 3% were counterfeit.

(Note for any languages that use the comma as a decimal separator: 1,553 million is referring to 1.5 billion)
Those buggers wouldn’t unlock supermarket trolleys, so you’d have to get rid of them at a McDonald’s, where the staff don’t look too close at the coinage.
In the UK the key from a tin of corned beef will operate a trolley. Do with this information what you wish.
