Conclusion 

The Country, capital and currency is an important topic to be asked in many competitive exams like Banking and Finance. Apart from this, it not only enhances our knowledge about the world but also helps us improve our geography. Each country has its own currency that is described as a legal form of tender, which is used in exchange. In simple terms, it is the accepted form of money in circulation. When one travels to a new country, the currency needs to be exchanged. The US Dollar is the most widely accepted form of money. The Yen and the Euro are the other two. It is extremely important to know all countries, capitals and currencies.
