~~Fact I read~~

I am doing a project regarding the economy of Hungary and I learned that the highest inflation was reached in that country in 1946 much higher than Zimbabwe.(below from wikipedia)



The worse case of hyperinflation belongs to Hungary On 18 August 1946, 400,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 or 4×1029
 The Zim Dollars became so worthless and useless that people began to use it as toilet paper. That is how bad the inflation was during that time. For example a bottle of beer would cost a 100 billions of Zim Dollars to buy.
