	Challenge: Full Dollarization: Fad or Future?
		Full dollarization is a complete monetary union with a foreign country from which a country "imports" a currency by making the foreign currency full legal tender and reducing its own currency, if any, to a subsidiary role.
		The reasons that full dollarization is not more widespread include the political symbolism of a national currency, historical patterns of use of domestic and foreign currency, and economic factors such as the perceived costs of dollarization.
		Fully dollarized economies vary with respect to the number of foreign currencies they allow to circulate as full legal tender and with respect to the relationship between domestic currency, if it exists, and foreign currency.
