« Dollar RNC » : différence entre les versions

Durant le [[Guerre de la Confrérie|conflit l'opposant à Lost Hills]], la RNC perdit une grande partie de leur réserve d'or après les incessants raids menés par la Confrérie, au point où il était impossible de frapper les pièces. Les citoyens, paniqués, se précipitèrent dans ce qui restait des réserves pour réclamer la valeur faciale de leur bien. La RNC étant incapable de réaliser ces retraits, la confiance en cette monnaie a fortement chuté. Pour se protéger d'un éventuel effondrement économique, la RNC abandonna l'étalon-or et établit une {{Wikipédia|monnaie fiduciaire}}, sans remise en espèce.<ref name="Sawyer1">"And this is discussed in-game: BoS raided NCR's gold reserves until NCR could no longer generate gold coinage nor back their paper money. They abandoned the gold standard and established fiat currency, which is why its value is inflated over both caps and (especially) Legion coinage. (...) People in eastern NCR and the Mojave Wasteland lost faith in the NCR government's a) ability to back the listed value of paper money and b) stability overall. If you're living in Bakersfield, staring at a piece of paper that says "redeemable for value in gold" and you have no faith in the government's ability or willingness to do that -- or if you see that the government has changed the currency to say that it is not able to be exchanged for a backed good -- you may very well listen to the strong consortium of local merchants offering to exchange that paper note for currency backed by water." --[[J.E.

Carrying enough water to travel from New Vegas to the Boneyard (or vice versa) would undercut cargo capacity significantly. Even the communities around the Mojave Wasteland (other than New Vegas itself) have water brought in and stored in local towers. Of course, the Colorado River is nearby as long as you don't mind walking through an active war zone." --[[J.E.
