==Hyperinflation==

Hyperinflation is out of control inflation and has occurred when there is a massive imbalance between the supply and demand and a complete loss of confidence in the [[currency]].  It has occurred when prices are decontrolled by central governments, like in the [[economic collapse]] of the [[USSR]], where inflation reached over 1000% in some areas.<ref>[http://globalis.gvu.unu.edu/indicator.cfm?IndicatorID=152&Year=1995&Country=UA] Inflation Indicators Ukraine</Ref>
