Dru'ul
More actions
Dru'ul is an mathematic abstraction of currency, used often in Deysachin, to substitute for physical currency. Dru'ul is often confused for a currency itself, but there is no physical currency behind it, all exchanges of Dru'ul are done through checks. It is instead more comparable to a unit of measurement. Dru'ul is regulated by Modhes Econimat, with supervision by Modhes Temple.
History
Prior to the Modhesian Conquests there was little need for a system such as Dru'ul as, though there were many currencies throughout Sasatn'a, it was not a very widely connected land. The Empire of Bel however, in fitting with their Mn'krapanti beliefs, did not use any form of currency, believing merchantilism to be a distraction of the physical world. When Modhes Ywl flayed himself, this practice was abandoned.
Dru'ul was declared into existance on 79.08.26, as one of the first autonomous acts of Modhes Temple. Archpriest Pwtjyhr Hyawuihnt'uet gave as explanation that trade across deysachin, and tax collection, had been extremely difficult due to the nonstandard nature of currency, with some areas lacking any concept thereof.
In 42 PC, due to the economic boom following the Long Day, The price of Dru'ul reached an all time low of 1/30,000th of a platinum bar, or roughly a half cut of churg jerky. To ammend this however, Modhes Ywl declared the price of Dru'ul to be increased a hundredfold. Economists were puzzled at this, as they were not sure how or if he could do that. Most chalked it up to a miracle.
in 44 PC, Modhes Econimat created various government sponsored forms of currency exchange for trade with foreign states. The process for Dru'ul-Loteng conversion had 15 steps and involved matrix multiplication.
To resolve a miner's strike in 45 PC, Modhes Temple fixed a minimum wage of 12 Dru'ul for labor, which at the time was the lowest value of Dru'ul which could be physically paid.
