LIECHTENSTEIN

The Principality of Liechtenstein is located between Austria and Switzerland, in Central Europe, with a capital of Vadus.
Liechtenstein came into being in 1719. it was a member of the Rhine Confederation from 1806-1815 and then the German Confederation until 1856 when it became independent.It abolished its army in 1868. In 1921, it adopted the Swiss  currency and Switzerland has responsibility for its international affairs.

A bit like the country, this note is tiny 3"x 1 3/4" (76mm x 45mm) from 1920, its the 10 Heller note with the coat of arms on the front and a villa, printed vertically, on the reverse.

These Notes above are not currency but were issued as a commemoration of the 60th anniversary of he Vilnius Ghetto and the holocaust victims there in . I've turned the 5 note around so as to see the reverse, each note has a different picture from the Ghetto. You can read an account here

GREENLAND

Greenland is the largest island in the world and is a part of Denmark. It's capital is Nuuk (Godthab). Although Greenland had been colonized by Denmark since the 18th Century, it officially became part of Denmark in 1953. It Joined the EU with Denmark in 1973 but withdrew in 1985 over fishing quotas. Greenland was granted self government in 1980 but Denmark still retains control of it's foreign affairs.

OK! this is cheating a wee bit!! the scan above is not of a Greenland note but of a Trade certificate. I've seen a few Greenland notes for sale on eBay but they generally sell for hundreds of pounds so i have to make do with the Trade certificate !!

BOHEMIA AND MORAVIA

Slightly out of alphabetical sync, as it was filed under the wrong country, here we have Bohemia and Moravia. Bohemia ( a province of North West Czechoslovakia), Moravia (a central province of Czechoslovakia) and Silesia ( a province mostly in Poland) were joined together in 1939 to become a German protectorate until 1945 when it was dissolved and Bohemia and Moravia reverted to being incorporated back into Czechoslovakia.

The note above is a one Koruna (krone) from 1940 .
