Etymology
The euro was introduced on January 1, 1999, as an electronic currency to facilitate trade among European Union countries. It became physical cash in 2002. The name 'euro' was chosen after a public consultation and is derived from the Greek word 'eurus,' which means 'wide' or 'broad,' symbolizing the unity and diversity of the European Union.
