Authentic Renewal Organization
The Authentic Renewal Organization (ORA) is an Evangelical and Pentecostal political party in Venezuela, originally founded in 1988 by Godofredo Marín and Carlos Mendez. The ORA does not align itself with any specific political ideology, but believes itself to be a form of government under the "sacred and noble Christian principles of love, peace, faith, and hope". History In its first electoral participation, the party nominated one of its founders, Godofredo Ramón Marín, as a candidate for the general elections of 1988. The electoral promise of the party was based on "governing Venezuela for five years according to the Evangelical Bible," but with only 0.87% of the votes, the party and the candidate did not obtain the results they had expected.

The Ora (symbol:Φ, ) is the local currency of Orania, an Afrikaner whites-only town in South Africa first issued in April 2004. It is pegged at par with the South African rand. The name, recalling that of the town where it circulates, derives from Latin ''aurum'', meaning "gold". The currency is not sanctioned by the South African Reserve Bank.

The first notes issued in April 2004 to provide an internal currency for Orania as part of its goal to create an independent Afrikaner state known as a Volkstaat. Before its launch, the South African Reserve Bank cautioned that all items produced could not resemble Rand notes, under South African law. It is printed in denominations of 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 Ora. The 10 Ora note depicts Afrikaner history, the 20 Ora notes A ...
