The traders from the Trade Company Country who do business in our lands have approached the local authorities in Trade Company Province, asking to be allowed to expand an existing factory. They desire to build a fort and be granted permission to collect taxes from our subjects living within a certain radius of their factory. These foreign traders argue that if we give them these rights they will not only be able to compensate us financially, but also that the increased commerce and traffic to our ports in the province will lead to a general growth of the region's importance in international trade. We would, however, be allowing these foreigners to expand at the expense of our own merchants.
