If you think that the current economic crisis is something that has never happened in history before, you may be wrong! After the collapse of the agriculture sector in Zimbabwe in 2000, the inflation in that country skyrocketed to 231 million percent a year! Just think about it - 231 000 000%! Unemployment went up to 80% and a third of country’s population left it. 

如果你認為目前的經濟危機歷史上也曾經發生過，那就大錯特錯了！自從2000年津巴布韋農業崩潰以來，該國的年通貨膨脹率達到231 000 000%！失業率達到80%，1/3人口離開了這個國家。

Let`s now have a look at the photos that you may not be able to see anywhere else in the world. 

讓我們來看看在其他國家不可能看到的一些照片。
