List Of Nations Or Entities Which Currently [As Of February 2012] Use The Euro As Their Primary Currency, Or Which Have Exchange Rate Agreements With The Euro, Or Which Have Already Begun The Transition From A Dollar-Based To A Euro-Based Economy, Or Which Have Publicly Announced Their Intentions To Build Up Their Euro Reserves, Or, Which Purchase Their Oil In Euros, Or, Which Keep A Certain Percentage Of Their National Currency Reserve In Euros
What nations or entities currently use the Euro?
Following is a list of nations, etc., which:
a. already use the Euro as their primary currency
b. or, which have exchange rate agreements with the Euro
c. or, which have already begun the transition from a dollar-based, to a Euro-based economy
d. or, which have publicly announced their intentions to build up their Euro reserves
e. or, which purchase their oil in Euros
f. or, which keep a certain percentage of their national currency reserve in Euros.
The following list is constantly evolving, and may not be complete at the time that you read this. Nevertheless, it is easy to see that the Euro has steadily advanced, since its creation in 1999. When the Euro-based economies reach a critical mass, the U.S. dollar will explode, and the Euro will become the de facto reserve currency of the world, which will be used to make most oil purchases.
