Banknote Series 17 - Banknotes of the Serbian separatist states

In this video, I talk about the banknotes issued by the Serbian separatist states from Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia. These are Republika Srpska and Srpska Krajina respectively.

What interested me was the near-perfect similarity of the banknotes issued by these two separatist states. Doing more research led me to discover that both economic and political factors played a huge role in this design decision.
