Dutch East India Company - The original corporate raiders.
MASS ATROCITIES!
They are the Bug Bad Evil in my pirate themed DnD campaign. Or a proxy of them at least. What better justification for becoming a pirate than them? To quote a real pirate captain from the 1700, "They rob the poor under cover of law, we plunder the rich under the cover of our own courage."
That's a 10/10 quote
And no. 2 is The British East India Company
Yea I probably got them mixed up. The British one is what I meant. It's probably number 1?
No lol you are right, the Dutch one was worse
came here to say this. though if American slave traders had actually been a unified corporation I'd be pointing at them.
