  1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Introduction: Hi there! My name is Willem Usselincx, founder of the West-Indische Compagnie. I would like to welcome you to this thread and if you have any questions feel free to leave a comment or message me! History: The Dutch West India Company was a chartered company (known as the "West-Indische Compagnie" in Dutch or just the simple abbreviation "WIC") of Dutch Merchants. Among its founding fathers was Willem Usselincx. On June 3, 1621 the company was granted a charter for a trade monopoly in the West Indies by the Republic of the Seven United Netherlands and given jurisdiction over the Atlantic Slave Trade, Brazil, the Caribbean, and North America. The area where the company could operate consisted of West Africa and the Americas, which included the Pacific Ocean and the eastern part of New Guinea. The intended purpose of the charter was to eliminate competition, particularly the Spanish and Portuguese, between the various trading ports established by the merchants. The company became instrumental in the Dutch Colonization of the Americas. The Trading Company: We accept anyone! Dutch or not the main language that will be spoken is English. So English is a requirement. We will be using Dutch Ships and we will mainly focus around Trading and Exploring. We aim for realism and historical accuracy.
