It’s main supporter was the Bank of England (private institution until 1946) which after suffering a run on their reserves was given an injection of wealth by the House of Rothschild’s. “the East India company was really too big to fail. So it was that in 1773, the worlds first aggressive multinational corporation was saved by history’s first mega bailout” by the Bank of England
State + Corporations + Financial Institutions = past-imperialism aka present-globalization
