2. **Zimbabwe Dollar (2000s)** - Inflation hit 89.7 sextillion percent annually

3. **Hungarian Pengő (1946)** - Worst hyperinflation in recorded history

4. **Confederate States Dollar (1861-1865)** - Civil War destroyed it

5. **Russian Ruble (1990s)** - Soviet collapse, 2,500% inflation in 1992

6. **Argentine Peso (multiple times)** - 1989-1990 and 2001-2002 crises

7. **Turkish Lira (1970s-1980s)** - Chronic high inflation periods

8. **Brazilian Cruzeiro (1980s-1990s)** - Multiple currency changes

9. **Yugoslavian Dinar (1990s)** - War and political breakup

Notice a pattern? War, political instability, and governments printing money to solve problems they created. Yet somehow "this time is different" right?
