#24 - 5 Dollars

The Zambonian five features a portrait of Ivan Turing, the young country's first leader.

Drunk with power, Turing's first legislative act was to allocate tax moneys

towards the construction of a monstrous concrete statue that would be placed

in the center of Turingsberg, the capital of Zambonia. He also insisted

that all denominations of currency feature his portrait and little else.

Tens of thousands of depreciating Zambonian dollars are spent yearly in the

employment of money scrubbers whose sole job is to erase black eyes and

epithets from the worthless bills.
