The birds are too samey and fail to convey any national sentiment. Every major uses historical figures for their banknotes because people are easy to differentiate at a glance and also foster communal spirit, idk why Europe should be any different.

They just don't scream "Europe" to me. Like, anyone can look at Davinci and know he's Italian, but the birds just look like birds.

Eh, maybe I'm overly orthodox, I guess it's hard for me to take the birds seriously when everyone else is doing people. Maybe the euro could do it like China's fifth series of renminbi and just have Ceasar or Von Der Leyen or whatever on all the bills.

@AppleAmps i don’t think they have to scream Europe or anything, our current bills don’t really have anything to do with Europe, and it works just fine. the birds are a massive improvement compared to the current bills.
also, i just really like birds. and representing the nature of the continent is imo much cooler than some stuffy people like every bill in the world has.

Well yeah but the people concept seems to be aware of that, given how they're mostly just scientists and artists and not, like, Columbus or whatever. The 200 euro note even has a nobel peace prize winner, for all that's worth.

Mmmh, fair enough. I feel like if it was gonna be nature though it should also have some landmarks, like, do birds and animals for the smaller ones and then forests and fjords for the larger ones.

ug@brain.worm.pinki mean putting wholesome imagery of birds n shit on the money seems like a weird way to obscure the nature of state backed currency, like a Honduran Lempira with a 19th century spanish landlord tells you all you need to know about that piece of paper. American currency is on the nose with all the slave owners, and all that masonic shit, it's pretty open that this is an imperialist system ruled by a technocratic elite and always has been.

Fair, fair, they certainly could've gotten some Hungarians or Latvians or whatever to balance out the roster but Curie and Kallas from Poland and Greece, respectively work well enough.
