Home of the Baroon Dollar There are many major currencies that are internationally traded: The Japanese yen, the Mexican peso, the Russian ruble. Other currencies are a bit less familiar. For instance, the Nigerian Naira... The Polish zloty..and the Panamanian Balboa. And here's another .... The Baroon Dollar.....though its not an official currency. We want you to guess which country is home to the Baroon Dollar. Here's a hint: it's the world's smallest continent. We'll complete this transaction when you name the country.

The World's Geo Quiz tests your knowledge of world geography, and introduces you to fascinating people and places around the globe. The World is a US-based international news and analysis program co-produced by the BBC World Service, Public Radio International, and WGBH Boston.
