It begins by explaining how early civilizations did not use money. Instead, they engaged in barter, exchanging goods and services directly. However, this system became impractical as societies grew and people began to specialise in different areas of production. Specialisation increased the need for trade, but bartering had limitations, such as difficulty in determining equal value for goods and the problem of not always needing what others offered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To solve these issues, commodity money was introduced. People used basic items like salt, tea, and cattle as money, but these too had problems. Commodities were often heavy, hard to store, or perishable. This led to the development of metal coins, which were easier to handle. Metal coins were first used around 5000 BC, and by 700 BC, they became more widespread, with countries minting their own coins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paper money followed, first appearing in China around AD 806. Despite being used in China for centuries, paper currency didn\u2019t spread to Europe until much later. Today, modern currencies, including coins and paper money, are the standard. Each country has its own currency, such as the Indian Rupee or the US Dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Money plays three key roles in an economy: it is a medium of exchange, a standard of value, and a store of value. For something to serve as money, it must be durable, scarce, easy to transport, divisible, and widely accepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Extra\/additional_questions_and_answers\"><strong>Textual MCQs<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1.
