Doesn't matter how bad Zimbabwe gets. It could quite literally be an apocalyptic wasteland and it will still be labelled an African success story because it was decolonized.

Queues have formed outside banks in Zimbabwe as people hope to get hold of the country's first Zimbabwe dollar notes to be issued since 2009.

The currency was scrapped a decade ago because of hyperinflation when prices were almost doubling every day.

Zimbabwe's central bank hopes the new notes will ease a severe cash shortage as the country suffers a deepening economic crisis.

The bank has played down fears that the move will fuel further inflation.

Currently inflation is thought to be about 300%.
