	Nakfa Online
		During much of Eritrea's long fight for independence, Nakfa served as the headquarters of the country's resistance movement and so became one of the more popular spots for touring Ethiopian bombs and bullets.
		A visit to Nakfa, which entails a fairly arduous road trip, will give you a better understanding of what took place on the country's battlefields and will also take you to the heart of the collective Eritrean self-determination.
		Near Nakfa are the twin peaks of Den Den, a mountain that served as the rebels' radio transmission 'tower' during the war and which provides clear views of the surrounding area and all its battle scars.

		NAKFA, Eritrea, April 20 (AFP) - In the 12 years since Eritrea won independence from Ethiopia, this remote northern town has come to symbolize the struggle for freedom evolving into a veritable museum of liberation and lending its name to the national currency.
		The official exchange rate is 15 Nakfa to the dollar, but on the fl market it fetches around 20 Nakfa, something Asmara is trying to crush.

	Eritrea Dokumentären - Etiopien-Eritrea del II
		The accusation leveled on Eritrea by the Ethiopian government and media is that it sought to force upon Ethiopia a Nakfa convertible with the Birr on parity and that it insisted that both currencies circulate freely in both countries.
		It was, rather, to put it in layman's terms, giving traders in either country the opportunity to agree on the use of the currency of their choice for settlement and to do so through the intermediary of banks in both countries.
		Holders of that currency were harassed at all Ethiopian points of entry, the Nakfa was confiscated and sometimes torn or burned and the atmosphere of the complete break-down of trade created by Ethiopian authorities.

	Newest nation determined to thrive (1/4/98, The N&O)
		The currency's name comes from the mountain town that was the heart of Eritrea's 30-year war for independence from neighboring Ethiopia; Nakfa is a one-word homage to the 60,000 Eritrean fighters who died along with 90,000 noncombatants before the Ethiopians were driven out in 1991.
		The Nakfa notes are prominent reminders of the government's commitment to equality and empowerment for women.
		This resourcefulness is celebrated on the 10 Nakfa note in an unlikely symbol of national pride: a funny little train pulled down the tracks not by a sleek locomotive but by a captured Oral truck, rebuilt for rail duty.
