The '''Taler''' (symbol: '''₮'''; ISO code: '''LUT''' for Levantine Union Taler), sometimes known as the '''dollar''', the '''thaler''', and officially as the '''Levantine Taler''', is the official currency of the [[Levantine Union]]. It is subdivided into 100 ''pence'' (singular: ''penny''). At various times, the taler was commodity money or bank notes backed by silver or gold, but it is currently fiat money, backed only by the economy in the areas where it is accepted. The taler is one the world's oldest currency still in use and which has been in continuous use since its inception. It is in use throughout the [[Talerzone|talerzone]].
==History==
==Market and Currency Authority of the Levantine Union==
==Bills==


The Taler bills, issued in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100, each display elements related to different members of the [[Levantine Union]]. Typically, the obverse shows an iconic structure associated with the nation being represented while the reverse depicts a founding figure of the nation. [[Burgundie]]'s represented bill - the 20 Taler note - breaks convention by showing its association with the sea on the obverse and a national romantic personification on the reverse. Although the specific artwork and design is chosen by the Levantine Union Currency Authority, the specific items to be depicted are established by official acts of the member governments of the Union.

The '''East Arctic Mandate''' (Coscivian: ''Êdrixistórulnax Ípasimdiskírēn'') is a [[League of Nations]] {{wp|League of Nations mandate|mandate}} in far northern [[Crona]] entrusted to the Kiravian Federacy.
 
==Geography==
The East Arctic Mandate borders North Atrassic Crona to the South, though there is no overland road or rail route between the two territories. It borders the ice cap to the North, the Atrassic Ocean to the east, and Urc’s protectorate to the West.
 
==Government==
The East Arctic Mandate is an {{wp|administrative state}} governed by Kiravian federal agencies and appointees.
 
There is no legislative body, though there are vague plans to convene a consultative council without lawmaking powers sometime in the near future.
 
===Local Governance===
The East Arctic Mandate is divided into six ''deneþuriguv'', translatable as “bailiwicks” or “magisterial districts”, which serve as the judicial and statistical equivalent of ''amtra'' (“countyships”) in other Kiravian federal subjects. These include four ''raion'' into which the mandate’s territory is divided latitudinally - Tundra, Near Arctic, High Arctic, and Extreme Arctic - and two ''vestra'' (“boroughs”) - Ōsen-Rōtelra and Port Safeway - which are administratively separate from the ''raīon'' surrounding them.
 
At the present time, indigenous denizens of the Mandate who have not voluntarily submitted to civil registration are generally left to their own devices, with Kiravian authorities governing them (when necessary) indirectly through tribal leaders as intermediaries.

==Society & Culture==
The majority of the Mandate’s seventeen thousand people are indigenous, belonging to three different ethnic groups. The Choryak people live as tundra herders and inland hunters. The Simiut are hunter-gatherers in the more northerly glaciated areas and the Intuit are marine mammal hunters living on the sea ice and adjacent coastal regions. The Simiut and Intuit are differentiated mainly by lifestyle, speaking closely-related dialects and sharing generally similar religious traditions. Almost the entire indigenous population is nomadic or semi-nomadic, living in seasonally-shifting traditional settlements.
 
A small but growing population of Coscivian and Celtic Kiravians live in the Mandate, almost all on a temporary basis as military and governmental personnel, scientists, and service workers. A few Kiravian merchants and missionaries also live in the Mandate. There are also some [[Koré'hetanùa|Koré'hetanùan]] workers in the mandate who maintain the supply chains to touristic establishments in the International Nature Preserve.

The East Arctic Mandate (Coscivian: Êdrixistórulnax Ípasimdiskírēn) is a League of Nations mandate in far northern Crona entrusted to the Kiravian Federacy.

Geography

The East Arctic Mandate borders North Atrassic Crona to the South, though there is no overland road or rail route between the two territories. It borders the ice cap to the North, the Atrassic Ocean to the east, and Urc’s protectorate to the West.

Government

The East Arctic Mandate is an administrative state governed by Kiravian federal agencies and appointees.

There is no legislative body, though there are vague plans to convene a consultative council without lawmaking powers sometime in the near future.

Local Governance

The East Arctic Mandate is divided into six deneþuriguv, translatable as “bailiwicks” or “magisterial districts”, which serve as the judicial and statistical equivalent of amtra (“countyships”) in other Kiravian federal subjects. These include four raion into which the mandate’s territory is divided latitudinally - Tundra, Near Arctic, High Arctic, and Extreme Arctic - and two vestra (“boroughs”) - Ōsen-Rōtelra and Port Safeway - which are administratively separate from the raīon surrounding them.

At the present time, indigenous denizens of the Mandate who have not voluntarily submitted to civil registration are generally left to their own devices, with Kiravian authorities governing them (when necessary) indirectly through tribal leaders as intermediaries.

Society & Culture

The majority of the Mandate’s seventeen thousand people are indigenous, belonging to three different ethnic groups. The Choryak people live as tundra herders and inland hunters. The Simiut are hunter-gatherers in the more northerly glaciated areas and the Intuit are marine mammal hunters living on the sea ice and adjacent coastal regions. The Simiut and Intuit are differentiated mainly by lifestyle, speaking closely-related dialects and sharing generally similar religious traditions. Almost the entire indigenous population is nomadic or semi-nomadic, living in seasonally-shifting traditional settlements.

A small but growing population of Coscivian and Celtic Kiravians live in the Mandate, almost all on a temporary basis as military and governmental personnel, scientists, and service workers. A few Kiravian merchants and missionaries also live in the Mandate. There are also some Koré'hetanùan workers in the mandate who maintain the supply chains to touristic establishments in the International Nature Preserve.
