U.S. Dollar...

The U.S. dollar is the currency most used for international transactions.  Several countries use the U.S. dollar as their official currency, and in many others it’s used unofficially or as a de facto currency.  A de facto currency is a unit of money that is not legal tender in a country but is treated as such by most of the populace.

The biggest economies (other than the US) that officially use the dollar are Ecuador, El Salvador and Panama.  Additionally, British Virgin Islands, East Timor, Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Palau, Turks and Caicos Islands, Zimbabwe and Bermuda all use the U.S Dollar.  Those that use it as a de facto currency are:  Lebanon, Zimbabwe, Iraq (due to America’s involvement in the country), and Somalia.
