At its peak in the 17th century, the Dutch East India Company (Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie/VOC) had a broader global reach and economic clout than the British East India Company. The Dutch East India Company was truly global in scope (East and West), unlike the British East India Company, whose trade was limited mainly to the Indian subcontinent. This makes the Dutch company (and not the British one) the first true multinational company (in addition to being the first joint-stock company in the world). The Dutch East India Company was also the wealthiest commercial enterprise globally, generating enormous profits from the spice trade. It went bankrupt in the late 18th century and was formally dissolved in 1799, opening the doors to the British East India Company (dissolved in 1874). The British East India Company grew steadily and eventually surpassed the Dutch in economic power by the late 18th century. However, considering their historical impact, the British East India Company arguably had a more significant and enduring influence on global trade and politics.
Not true, the VOC had the Dutch monopoly from the Cape eastwards, the WIC had the Dutch monopoly on the Atlantic. It did an expedition to find the North passage to the East-Indies for which they hired Henry Hudson. European trade wast still much, much bigger and that was dominated by the Dutch merchant fleet consisting of thousands of companies that had nothing to do with the VOC.

Well not really, because meanwhile the Dutch East India was the protector of the Spice Islands and more, the British East India Company was the de facto ruler of India. The Dutch East India had way less authority over thier sphere of influenze.

You know that Britain was only able to conquer the world because of it's parliamentary institutions and free trade. Most colonies were even a losing game for Britain and France and they only kept them for prestige and so that they had a market there and could sell goods to. To say that Britain got rich because of India is wrong, Britain got rich because of it's early industrialisation which happened because of it's parliamentary institutions and free trade. Your argument is not logical and you are confusing the chain of causality.
The european colonialist nations got their empires because they developed weapons far more advanced than their victimcs after endless wars with one another. (Also, especially in the case of the Americas, the devastating diseases they brought with them was a crucial factor). Britain did not industrialise until after the American revolution, as a direct result of their defeat in that war- they needed to build newer, better warships to make up for their losses. The fact that other nations from the same part of the world, with a similar history in warfare, but no meaningful parliaments also had vast colonial empires moere or less disproves that bit of Whig nonsense, not to mention that suffrage was so limited, the parliament was more or less a joke.

There were two East India company’s. The Dutch one was the wealthiest company that has ever existed. Considering how rich n powerful, and despicable n immoral, they were that’s saying something.
It was still peanuts. No year in history had the VOC making more money for the Dutch Republic than the good old herring fishery. The Dutch merchant fleet in Europe was a 100 times bigger than that of the whole VOC.
@@jonathankerr4859 Another YT myth, all based on a dodgy calculation by a Canadian media company. We know it was bigger than the British East India Company, we also know that peak VOC brought in less money to the Dutch Republic than the good old herring fishery. We also know it's less than 200 merchant ships was futile compared to the enormous Dutch merchant fleet in Europe.
@@DenUitvreter didn’t know about the herring income. But why would it matter that the merchant fleet was larger? There both Dutch. I assume by what you say that the VOC operated globally outside of Europe and the merchant fleet in Europe. The VOC and Dutch merchant fleet would be rivals. Also just because one is larger than the other doesn’t mean that they are a more profitable organisation. But like I said, I didn’t know about the herring fishery. 👍
@@jonathankerr4859 I'm just putting it in perspective. Besides the dodgy calculations by a questionable source that is taken for a fact all over history videos on YT, the special thing about it was that it was all put in one company with a Dutch monopoly. If we decide now that all Dutch trade with Ireland would be done by a single company, that would be a huge company too. The VOC didn't compete with the tens of thousands of individual merchants because it had a monopoly East of the Cape in today's SA, and it was not competitive in the European trade because of operation costs. Bigger ships with lots of guns and bigger crew, double planked, they were specialized in one year journeys with valuable cargo, not suited for shipping wheat from Poland to Sweden at competitive prices.
India didn't have 1 billion people in 17th century. Also Europeans didn't arrived as invaders, they arrived as traders. When they gain trust of kings and common people, they backstabbed!
Honestly, why the East India Company didn't took over the British government. If they had a bigger army and a equal naval power that would be pretty easy
Same reason apple Google don't do it. It's the British name which game them the power otherwise it would have been open season on them by combine European power not just British also most of their wealth was in British banks.

I've mixed feelings. It is easy to look back retroactively on the past and apply modern moral values to the actions taken but that is dishonest and lacks context.

@@TAKOHUMU In the 1600s and 1700s most of the global population was under some kind of totalitarian rule where if you spoke out against the ruler you could expect to die, where human rights abuses and famines were common and where most people lived day to day with uncertainties about whether they would have enough food to get through the next week for their families. Wars and disease were also common and life expectancy was short. Viewing conditions in India against modern expectations is out of context given what life was like there was pretty similar to the conditions most people lived under in the 1600s and 1700s.

fIrSt oRdEr is lame. Galactic Empire didn't fall after Sidious three deathes.
Yea I am STAR WARS EU Fan.
Almost as bad a company as google is.
East India Company = 169 = 7, English, In Chaldean = 54 = 9.
World take over = 169 = 7, English, In Chaldean = 54 = 9.
Wealth transfer = 170 = 8, English, In Chaldean = 54 = 9.
Tailor made money = 170 = 8, English, In Chaldean = 54 = 9.
You said it brought universities lmfao, google Nalanda University
LOL EIC was a joke the Dutch VOC was the largest company in the world EVER ...... PERIOD.
You know each company had different goals right?
Not just not nice but hellish 🤣
You should do America next...
America is still a dominant empire, you can't get accurate information on our business around the world or even domestic history often times.
Wonderful business 🇬🇧

I've mixed feelings. It is easy to look back retroactively on the past and apply modern moral values to the actions taken but that is dishonest and lacks context. In my view, "evil" requires malicious intent for the sake of doing harm. The EIC never did anything purely for the purpose of causing harm, it was always for money.
Love of money is the root of all evil...
@@Vroomfondle1066 eh
Bible Reference: 1 Timothy 6:10 'For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.'

Isn't modem harm done in the name of money, too?
Lots of evil deeds can be made, even though unintentionally, in the pursuit of wealth.
Especially if the ends justify all means.
Why keep people confusing the Dutch East India company with the British. The Dutch was first and far larger
No it wasn't.
Etc 1600
Voc 1602
The dutch had earlier success to to more government backing
@@ciaranRealand richer, but not richer compared to the Republic of the Netherlands.
Nice
Damn I didn't no that
still not as greedy as EA
A RUclips video could not bem so uninteresting and unappealing to listen.
I retained nothing of what you Said.
What is all this gay moral lecturing? I will be the one to decide what is and is not evil. I just want to hear historical facts from you. In my opinion this is quite infantilizing from you, assuming your audience isnt capable of having their own moral compasss instead they need you like mommy to tell them what is a no no.
It's just...good business.
Rule Britainnia Britainnia. Rules the waves
If you're british, go shame yourself. It's Britannia RULE the waves .

Doesn't sound that horrible to me, but I understand the need to label these things so the sensitive beings who cannot think for themselves and draw their own conclusions from universal principles don't get their feelings hurt. Great video nonetheless.
Please, for all the “sensitive beings who cannot think for themselves” explain why you don’t think this was horrible
They skipped over the wars that EIC waged on dissenters. Those got extremely ugly. Thousands died.

> "Please ... who cannot think for themselves ... explain"
Case in point. You want me to do your thinking for you... Tiring.
The same slushy minded idiots again and again..
@mercx007 lmao yes if only we didn't have cures/preventative care for polio, measles, whooping cough, pertussis, tetanus, the black plague and you were a feudal serf maybe you'd have died young enough for us to not hear from you. #MAGA MAGA MAGA.
@@TAKOHUMU In the 1600s and 1700s most of the global population was under some kind of totalitarian rule where if you spoke out against the ruler you could expect to die, where human rights abuses and famines were common and where most people lived day to day with uncertainties about whether they would have enough food to get through the next week for their families. Wars and disease were also common and life expectancy was short. Viewing conditions in India against modern expectations is out of context given what life was like there was pretty similar to the conditions most people lived under in the 1600s and 1700s.
