Everything in life revolves around money. People don't look after each other since, they only care about how much they can make off each other. Take a look at 3rd world countries. Hungry, shelter, education. These can be provided to everyone in the world easily, since we have the technology but, we won't because it costs too much. Same goes for laws. They are just attempts to control recurring problems in society. But, we will never completely eliminate crime since, we are not solving the root cause. Most of them are because, criminals are usually brought up in a poor environment with little or no money. Only thing that is valuable to us is technology. Money has no materialistic value. A car allows to travel from one place to another. A heater keeps us warm. A toilet helps us maintain a healthy waste system. Technology is the only thing that is important. Money is pointless. Also, the way it is brought into our society is flawed. Money is simply created from thin air in the Federal Reserve bank and traded to the government for Treasury Bonds. The government is promising to pay back the Federal Reserve the original sum plus interest. Already there is a problem. The interest cannot physically exist. Even if all the money was payed back, there would be no physical money left to pay the interest. So, as you can see, the International Monetary System is very flawed and is the root cause of many of societies problems today.
The stages of development of the international monetary system are: 1. Bimetallism : before 1875 Both gold & silver were used as means of payment. 2. Classic Gold Standards : 1875 - 1914 The trading operated under a fixed exchange system called gold standards. 3. Interwar Period : 1915 - 1944 International monetary system was unstable and exchange rates were highly volatile due to the World Wars. 4. Bretton Woods System : 1945 -1972 IMF and IBRD took shape in order to rebuild the international economic system. 5. Exchange Rate regime : 1973 - present A more flexible system built in view of collapse of the Bretton Wood System
South Korea's monetary system is comprised on the Korean won. A single won is divided into 100 jeon, the monetary sub-unit of South Korea.
The main objectives of the Bretton Woods system, established in 1944, were to promote international monetary cooperation, ensure exchange rate stability, and facilitate post-war economic recovery. It aimed to create a stable framework for international trade by tying currencies to the US dollar, which was convertible to gold, thereby reducing the risks of currency fluctuations. Additionally, the system sought to prevent competitive devaluations and provide financial assistance to countries facing balance of payments issues through institutions like the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank.
A monetary system is a bank. Yes, it is simple as that, to be honest. While a financial institution is a bank that has many other aspects.

Forty-four countries agreed to cooperate to solve international trade and investment problems.
In 1946 in Washington, D.C., the international organization to monitor the new international monetary system came into existence--the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
International Monetary System
At an international meeting in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, in July 1944, it was decided to create a new international monetary system and a permanent international organization to monitor it.
European Union
The international monetary system refers to the global framework of institutions, rules, and agreements that govern international financial transactions and exchange rates among countries. In contrast, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is a specific organization established to promote international monetary cooperation, provide financial assistance to countries in need, and facilitate global trade. While the international monetary system encompasses the broader structural and operational aspects of global finance, the IMF plays a key role within that system by offering support and policy advice to member countries.
The IMF endeavors to stabilize the international monetary system by temporarily lending resources in the form of foreign currencies and gold to countries experiencing international payment difficulties.
