The Cräite, also referred to as the Craitish Cräite, is the official currency of Craitland and of Hurmu. It is divided into one hundred cräi.

Usage

The Cräite is used as the sole official currency in Craitland, and is also used officially alongside regional currencies in its autonomous territories of Incontinentia, Lakkvia, New Vaduz and Zandarijn. Due to historical reasons, Talenore, when under Craitish sovereignty, used only its own dollar.

The Cräite is well-known internationally due to its adoption of usage by the FMF, Micras' association football organising body, for aspects including official payments of penalty fines and player transfer dealings.

The independent nation of Mercury has also unofficially adopted the Cräite as its currency alongside the pegged Mercury Credit.

In Hurmu

In the build-up to the re-formation of the Hurmu state, following the reunion of Lakkvia with the Hurmu Trust Territory, it was decided that the Crandish currency would remain official in the reunited Hurmu. Known as kret (pl. kretar, abbreviated kr) in Hurmu Norse, the country considers Craitish banknotes and coins legal tender. In practice, however, most transactions are electronic.

Symbol

The Cräite's official symbol is . However, due to occasional coding restraints and ease of typing, Cr is used interchangeably online and in print, even by official Craitish sources, and is an equally valid representation of the currency. Cr also prevails in written usage, when the long-form name is not required.
