This isn't help with an assignment more of helping understanding a history thing. So my question is, how does a country purchase something from another one? Wouldn't Dollars be worthless to Britain? Also how is it possible for the government to go broke, can't they just print the money, plus if they make the currency, couldn't they just change it. I get that Money from one country is worth some amount in another country, but how the heck would the other country benefit from foreign money, like don't they print the money, and having foreign money wouldn't help with purchasing things in their own country. I don't know a lot about this type of stuff, so I could be wrong, i'm not even entirely sure countries print money. This is my first question so sorry if it's long.

A country purchases something from another country through agreements or quite simply a business deal, when dealing with a foreign currency the country exchanges the dollar for another type of money. Let's say you're an American and you want to go to Mexico, obviously you can't use American dollar to buy something in Mexico. Then you go and exchange that money for a Mexican dollar "peso," now you have Mexican money and they have American money and then Mexico can use that American money to buy things in American vice versa. A government can go broke due to recessions this includes, lack of jobs, frequent bankruptcies, and poor economy in general. Yes a country can just print more money but that does not mean it has value, you don't just add more fuel to the flames in hopes of extinguishing it. For example, there's a dollar in Zimbabwe that has a value of around 100 trillion but the dollar is not valuable, in fact, that dollar is worth 40 cents in American money. Adding onto "why can't a government print more money," if it was that easy why isn't each country as prosperous as the US for example.
