Trading Houses

Overview

Trading houses are the real powers in Europe with the Grandes Entreprises making up the biggest and most influential. The term Trading House is traditionally used but it encompasses manufacturers, traders, money lenders etc. all the same. Trading Houses scheme daily against each other while they maintain their iron grip on the continent, heedless of the damage they cause against the people or the very land itself.

Grandes Entreprises

The largest trading houses have strongly specialised, partially to avoid unnecessary conflict with each other, but still dabble in each others businesses. They are simply not especially known for products and services outside their niche.
