| Opmerkingen |
The Cassa Mediterranea di Credito was a purpose-built Italian colonial financial instrument, not a conventional central bank. Separate versions were established for Greece, Ethiopia, and the Sudan — each issuing currency denominated in lire rather than the local monetary unit, a deliberate policy of economic assimilation tied to Mussolini's imperial ambitions in East and North Africa.
The Sudan series was issued following Italy's entry into the war in June 1940 and intended for use in territories anticipated to fall under Italian control. Given the rapid collapse of Italian forces in East Africa by 1941, actual circulation was extremely limited.
