The VOC (Vereenigde Oostindische Compagnie) was the first real international company which came into existence in the year 1602. And perished in 1800, due to losing a lot of things like wars and trust. As a Dutchman I am very proud of the VOC because in the time of the VOC the Netherlands was a very strong and powerful country. Which itself was so powerful that in the first decades it was feared by most other European countries.
