1. Select a currency in a country that has experienced a crisis in the last year using an online search term such as "currency crisis."

2. Write a short essay to describe the underlying reasons for the currency crisis.

3. Explain how the weakness of the currency has affected economic conditions in that country. Does it appear that the currency's weakness caused the crisis in the country, or did an economic crisis in the country cause a weak currency?

Did the country's central bank use direct intervention in an attempt to resolve the crisis?

If so, was it successful?
