The correct answer is B. The monetary currency of Greece is called the drachma. It was the official currency of Greece from 1832 to 2002, when it was replaced by the euro. The drachma was subdivided into 100 lepta. The word “drachma” comes from the Greek word “drachme”, which means “handful”. The drachma was first introduced in 1832, shortly after Greece gained independence from the Ottoman Empire. The first drachma coins were issued in 1833, and the first drachma banknotes were issued in 1841. The drachma was a stable currency for most of its history, but it suffered from hyperinflation in the 1940s and 1950s. The drachma was pegged to the US dollar from 1953 to 1973, and it was then pegged to the European Currency Unit (ECU) from 1979 to 2001. Greece joined the European Monetary Union in 2001, and the drachma was replaced by the euro on January 1, 2002.
