That's completely wrong. Britain has never been controlled or influenced by the Dutch East India company. The Dutch East India company was a disorganised corrupt and mutinous calamity.
You're correct here. While the Dutch did gain a good amount of political control through William of Orange (and the establishment of parliamentary supremacy) my history was lacking on these companies. Didn't realize the British East India company had already been so established separately.
I am admittedly looking less at the actions of institutions and more at the flows of wealth (and power through it).
I do happen to know the Warburg family sort of followed this path of Venice to Holland and then through England helping establish the Fed. But yes, the VOC was a stray on my part. Thanks for the correction.
