Your talking an organization worth what, 2-3 trillion just in the money of that day! I know it became Jew infiltrated by the end, when expelled jews from Spain, etc set up shop there as the new financial center of the world, before moving onto England. My guess is basically that, but anyone have any good sources on how that power evolved into current times?

In my circle of people I interact with daily, I am by far the most educated. When I come to Poal, I realize I am by far, the most ignorant.

After spice plants got stolen and where brought to the Carribean and Brasil by the French and Porteguese the monopoly was over. Soon the prices of spices was lowered and the company declared bankrupthcy were both Indonesia and the Netherlands entered a knew age. Indonesia as a colony and the Netherlands as one of the poorest and most backwards countries of Europe.

Netherlands still seems to be very wealthy, now being the largest agricultural exporter in Europe. Man, I know some extremely rich, extremely cheap dutch people that just sit on money. Even Pennsylvania dutch, who are technically German. Them and some scotch- Irish I know are like the benevolent jews from Europe

The company was also the first official company to issue stocks, which peaked during the Dutch “Tulip Mania”, a craze for tulip bulbs that are seen as the world’s first true financial bubble.

This also means that this was one of the first times there was a concept of market cap that people could speculate on. I guess what I'm saying is, take something like Apple: The liquidation value might be much less than the market cap. The market cap is based on speculation about future profits. Though Apple is enormously profitable, its market cap is not quite the same thing as "worth." The only way someone could buy it, as far as I know, is to merge it with another large corporation. Nobody has enough cash (or gold) to buy it. As far as I know.

People were shareholders, the shareholders were paid, that's where the wealth went, to individuals. It's not like it was an independent nation.
