Asia (1780 EIC ship)
Asia was launched in 1780 and made six voyages as an East Indiaman for the British East India Company (EIC). She participated in three actions, two against the French and one against the Dutch. She left the EIC's service in 1799 and traded between London and Lisbon until 1802 when new owners from Embden renamed her Reine Louise de Prusse and returned her to trading with the East Indies. Asia is last listed in Lloyd's Register for 1808 on the London-Batavia trade.
EIC voyages
EIC voyage #1 (1781-83)
Asia, under the command of Captain Robert Maw, sailed from Portsmouth on 13 March 1781, bound for Bombay and China as part of a convoy of Indiamen accompanying a British squadron under Commodore George Johnstone. At about the same time as the British sailed, a French squadron under the command of Bailli de Suffren left France. Both squadrons were en route to the Cape of Good Hope, the British to take it from the Dutch, the French aiming to help defend it and French possessions in the Indian Ocean, including Rodriguez Island, Ile Bourbon (Réunion), Île de France (Mauritius), and Pondicherry.

.asia
.asia is the official designated regional domain extension for Asia and the Pacific. It is a sponsored generic top-level-domain (gTLD) operated by the DotAsia Organisation Ltd. .asia is open to companies, individuals and organisations who have connection to the region. .Asia domains can be seen and used by international and Asian businesses; regional conferences and symposiums; as well as Asian artists and celebrities.
The .Asia web address was introduced to the public through a comprehensive launch involving a multiphased Sunrise and Landrush process from October 9, 2007 to March 12, 2008. It became available on a first-come-first-served registration basis on March 26, 2008. In 2013, there are more than 455,000 .asia domains registered across 155 countries.
Roll-out/response
.asia founded the first Pioneer Domains Program on July 20, 2007, more than two months prior to the opening of its Sunrise launch. It offered businesses and individuals an opportunity to own and build on any .Asia domain before the TLD opened its doors to mass public registration. Applicants were asked to submit a brief business plan for the domain of choice and make a marketing deposit of US$10,000. The full deposit was returned to successful applicants against proof of marketing attributed to the promotion of the built out .Asia website.

Asia
Asia (
i/ˈeɪʒə/ or /ˈeɪʃə/) is the Earth's largest and most populous continent, located primarily in the eastern and northern hemispheres. Asia covers an area of 44,579,000 square kilometers, about 30% of Earth's total land area and 8.7% of the Earth's total surface area. It has historically been home to the world's first modern civilizations and has always hosted the bulk of the planet's human population. Asia is notable for not only overall large size and population, but unusually dense and large settlements as well as vast barely populated regions within the continent of 4.4 billion people. The boundaries of Asia are traditionally determined as that of Eurasia, as there is no significant geographical separation between Asia and Europe. The most commonly accepted boundaries place Asia to the east of the Suez Canal, the Ural River, and the Ural Mountains, and south of the Caucasus Mountains and the Caspian and Black Seas. It is bounded on the east by the Pacific Ocean, on the south by the Indian Ocean and on the north by the Arctic Ocean.

The Horrible History Of The East India Company
Exploitation, political meddling, and military aggression. I’m not talking about the dictator of a banana republic; I’m talking about a private company whose personal army was three times that of the British army. The East India Company sounds like the sort of capitalistic nightmare ripped straight from the pages of a Philipp K Dick novel, but these guys were a real dystopian force. Their time may be over, but their consequences of their actions shaped the world as we know it. In 1557, a few years before the unofficial Anglo-Spanish War, Francis Drake decided to explore the bank accounts of Spanish settlements in South America. [1] Once he plundered the Spanish colonies, he darted back across the Pacific Ocean, until touching down in the East Indies. As Drake sails away, the Spanish th...

Visitors to Amsterdam will be familiar with it’s tall, narrow buildings and labyrinth of canals which run past the winding streets with typical Dutch names such as Lindenstraat, Keizersgracht and Damstraat. But away from the well-trodden tourist paths of the city centre, in the eastern district, are some streets with not-so typical Dutch sounding names like Balistraat, Sumatrastraat, and Borneostraat. These are situated within what is known locally as the Indian neighbourhood and are named in reference to what was once the Dutch controlled East Indies.
Constituting much of the modern state of Indonesia, these islands came to be ruled by the Netherlands over 7000 miles away, when the Dutch East India Company established itself in the region some 400 years ago and quickly grew to become the richest company the world had ever seen.
Possessing quasi-governmental powers, including the ability to wage war, imprison and execute convicts, negotiate treaties, strike its own coins and establish colonies, it is often considered to be the world’s first multinational corporation and one which set the precedent for how modern business and international trade are conducted to this day. But what inspired these Dutch merchants to undertake the lengthy and perilous journey to the far side of the world? This is the history of the Dutch East India Company.
The United East India was a chartered company established on 20 March 1602 by the States General of the Netherlands amalgamating existing companies into the first joint-stock company in the world, granting it a 21-year monopoly to carry out trade activities in Asia. Shares in the company could be bought by any resident of the United Provinces and then subsequently bought and sold in open-air secondary markets (one of which became the Amsterdam Stock Exchange). It is sometimes considered to have been the first multinational corporation. It was a powerful company, possessing quasi-governmental powers, including the ability to wage war, imprison and execute convicts, negotiate treaties, strike its own coins, and establish colonies.
Statistically, the VOC eclipsed all of its rivals in the Asia trade. Between 1602 and 1796 the VOC sent almost a million Europeans to work in the Asia trade on 4,785 ships, and netted for their efforts more than 2.5 million tons of Asian trade goods. By contrast, the rest of Europe combined sent only 882,412 people from 1500 to 1795, and the fleet of the English (later British) East India Company, the VOC's nearest competitor, was a distant second to its total traffic with 2,690 ships and a mere one-fifth the tonnage of goods carried by the VOC. The VOC enjoyed huge profits from its spice monopoly through most of the 17th century.
Having been set up in 1602 to profit from the Malukan spice trade, the VOC established a capital in the port city of Jayakarta in 1609 and changed its name to Batavia (now Jakarta). Over the next two centuries the company acquired additional ports as trading bases and safeguarded their interests by taking over surrounding territory. It remained an important trading concern and paid an 18% annual dividend for almost 200 years. Much of the labour that built its colonies was from people it had enslaved.
Weighed down by smuggling, corruption and growing administrative costs in the late 18th century, the company went bankrupt and was formally dissolved in 1799. Its possessions and debt were taken over by the government of the Dutch Batavian Republic. The former territories owned by the VOC went on to become the Dutch East Indies and were expanded over the course of the 19th century to include the entirety of the Indonesian archipelago. In the 20th century, these islands would form the Republic of Indonesia.

Exploitation, political meddling, and military aggression.
I’m not talking about the dictator of a banana republic; I’m talking about a private company whose personal army was three times that of the British army. The East India Company sounds like the sort of capitalistic nightmare ripped straight from the pages of a Philipp K Dick novel, but these guys were a real dystopian force.
Their time may be over, but their consequences of their actions shaped the world as we know it. In 1557, a few years before the unofficial Anglo-Spanish War, Francis Drake decided to explore the bank accounts of Spanish settlements in South America. [1] Once he plundered the Spanish colonies, he darted back across the Pacific Ocean, until touching down in the East Indies.
As Drake sails away, the Spanish throw things at him in anger. While travelling through the Molucca Islands he met Sultan Babullah, then ruler of the Sultanate of Ternate – one of the oldest Muslim Kingdoms in Indonesia.
This guy was the greatest of the Sultans having run out the Portuguese occupants. Under his rule, the Sultanate reached its golden peak thanks to his reign of free trade and access to valuable forest resources. [2]
For Francis Drake, the maritime door-to-door salesman, this was the perfect client. After all, both him and the Sultan shared a common enemy with the Portuguese, who were in cahoots with the Spanish.
Drake offered his linens, gold and silver. But let’s call it what it really was, ‘Evil Thing Number 1
So it’s time to understand how history works as tally up the evil crimes of the East India Company.

Exploitation, political meddling, and military aggression.
I’m not talking about the dictator of a banana republic; I’m talking about a private company whose personal army was three times that of the British army. The East India Company sounds like the sort of capitalistic nightmare ripped straight from the pages of a Philipp K Dick novel, but these guys were a real dystopian force.
Their time may be over, but their consequences of their actions shaped the world as we know it. In 1557, a few years before the unofficial Anglo-Spanish War, Francis Drake decided to explore the bank accounts of Spanish settlements in South America. [1] Once he plundered the Spanish colonies, he darted back across the Pacific Ocean, until touching down in the East Indies.
As Drake sails away, the Spanish throw things at him in anger. While travelling through the Molucca Islands he met Sultan Babullah, then ruler of the Sultanate of Ternate – one of the oldest Muslim Kingdoms in Indonesia.
This guy was the greatest of the Sultans having run out the Portuguese occupants. Under his rule, the Sultanate reached its golden peak thanks to his reign of free trade and access to valuable forest resources. [2]
For Francis Drake, the maritime door-to-door salesman, this was the perfect client. After all, both him and the Sultan shared a common enemy with the Portuguese, who were in cahoots with the Spanish.
Drake offered his linens, gold and silver. But let’s call it what it really was, ‘Evil Thing Number 1
So it’s time to understand how history works as tally up the evil crimes of the East India Company.

ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE IN MADRAS BEFORE 1726
In India, the administration of justice and development of courts began from 1639 to 1726 in the presidency towns of Madras, Bombay and Calcutta. In Madras, these judicial administration by the britishers developed in three stages. They are
Stage I : 1639-1665
Stage II: 1665-1683
Stage III: 1683-1726
Stage I: 1639-1665
In 1639, for the purpose of English East India company, Francis day acquired a piece of land from Hindu raja of Chandragiri which was also known as Madraspatnam. In 1640, the English East India company constructed a factory in and it was called as Fort St. George. This fort was came to be called as the white town and the people residing in other places where called as the black town. Thus, the whole people comprising of white town and black town was called as the Madras.
Agent and council:
For the purpose of governance and judicial administration, the agent and council was authorized to decide both the civil and criminal cases of people residing in the white town. But, they referred most of the cases to the England since the judiciary was vague.
These agent and council who were appointed for the administration of justice were merchants and they didn’t have the knowledge of law. So they the cases based upon their knowledge and common sense.
Choultry court:
In the black town, the native judicial officer for the administration of justice and he was known as Adigari. They tried only simple cases but not the serious offences like murder and the appeals from the court was decided by the agent and council and they were vested with the appellate jurisdiction.
An Indian native officer called Kanappa who was appointed as the adigar was dismissed from the office and the Englishmen was appointed to the office of the choultry court since kanappa misused his power.
Governor and council:
By the charter of 1661,the company was empowered to appoint governor and council to decide both the civil and criminal cases of all the persons of company.
While the cases of Englishmen referred to the England , the cases of the English east India company was decided by the English law.
Stage II:1665-1683
High court of Judicature:
In 1665, the reorganized the whole judicial system and with the help of 12 juries they sat twice a week and decided both the civil and criminal cases. The also empowered to decide the appeals from the choultry court.
Choultry court :
The old choultry court was reconstituted and the three Englishmen were appointed in the place of adikari to decide the cases. They sat twice a week and empowered to decide only civil cases up to the value of 50 pagodas. The appeals from this court was also heard by the Governor in council.
Stage III: 1665-1726
During this stage two important courts were established i.e. In 1686,Admiralty court was established with the headship of judge advocate under the charter of 1683 and Mayors court under the charter of 1687 which was issued by East India company.
Admiralty court:
Reason behind need of this court:
In Asia , Arica and America the company was given a monopoly trade and if any British subjects wanted to do trading, they supposed to get a license from the East India company. But the rights of the company were being infringes b the other British traders and on account of it a court having jurisdiction to punish such traders was felt.
To deal with the increase in Crime of piracy on the high seas they required a court of admiralty.
Functions of the Admiralty court:
In 1686, this court was established in madras by the charter of 1683 headed by the judge advocate. It consisted of one person learned in civil law and two merchants appointed by the company. The court decided,
Merits:
Here, the executive functions were carried out by the governor in council and judicial functions by the court of Admiralty. So, the separation of executive and judiciary was maintained.
Before the establishment of this court the judges were mostly laymen and decided cases based on their common sense but after the establishment of admiralty court, the judges and lawyers were mostly professionals.
But the above features didn’t continued in Madras for a long time because of the death of Sir John Biggs.
Mayor’s court:
In Madras, mayors court was established under the charter of 1687 by the English East India company.
Appeals:
The appeals from this court were decided by the court of Admiralty.
In civil matters, the admiralty court had decided more than the value of 3 pagodas and in criminal cases they decided only when the punishment is lose of life or limbs.
But , the governor in council decided both the appeals from admiralty court and mayors court.
Choultry court:
The choultry could hear the petty civil cases upto the value of 2 pagodas. But , subsequently its power also declined in 1800.

Visitors to Amsterdam will be familiar with it’s tall, narrow buildings and labyrinth of canals which run past the winding streets with typical Dutch names such as Lindenstraat, Keizersgracht and Damstraat. But away from the well-trodden tourist paths of the city centre, in the eastern district, are some streets with not-so typical Dutch sounding names like Balistraat, Sumatrastraat, and Borneostraat. These are situated within what is known locally as the Indian neighbourhood and are named in reference to what was once the Dutch controlled East Indies.
Constituting much of the modern state of Indonesia, these islands came to be ruled by the Netherlands over 7000 miles away, when the Dutch East India Company established itself in the region some 400 years ago and quickly grew to become the richest company the world had ever seen.
Possessing quasi-governmental powers, including the ability to wage war, imprison and execute convicts, negotiate treaties, strike its own coins and establish colonies, it is often considered to be the world’s first multinational corporation and one which set the precedent for how modern business and international trade are conducted to this day. But what inspired these Dutch merchants to undertake the lengthy and perilous journey to the far side of the world? This is the history of the Dutch East India Company.
The United East India was a chartered company established on 20 March 1602 by the States General of the Netherlands amalgamating existing companies into the first joint-stock company in the world, granting it a 21-year monopoly to carry out trade activities in Asia. Shares in the company could be bought by any resident of the United Provinces and then subsequently bought and sold in open-air secondary markets (one of which became the Amsterdam Stock Exchange). It is sometimes considered to have been the first multinational corporation. It was a powerful company, possessing quasi-governmental powers, including the ability to wage war, imprison and execute convicts, negotiate treaties, strike its own coins, and establish colonies.
Statistically, the VOC eclipsed all of its rivals in the Asia trade. Between 1602 and 1796 the VOC sent almost a million Europeans to work in the Asia trade on 4,785 ships, and netted for their efforts more than 2.5 million tons of Asian trade goods. By contrast, the rest of Europe combined sent only 882,412 people from 1500 to 1795, and the fleet of the English (later British) East India Company, the VOC's nearest competitor, was a distant second to its total traffic with 2,690 ships and a mere one-fifth the tonnage of goods carried by the VOC. The VOC enjoyed huge profits from its spice monopoly through most of the 17th century.
Having been set up in 1602 to profit from the Malukan spice trade, the VOC established a capital in the port city of Jayakarta in 1609 and changed its name to Batavia (now Jakarta). Over the next two centuries the company acquired additional ports as trading bases and safeguarded their interests by taking over surrounding territory. It remained an important trading concern and paid an 18% annual dividend for almost 200 years. Much of the labour that built its colonies was from people it had enslaved.
Weighed down by smuggling, corruption and growing administrative costs in the late 18th century, the company went bankrupt and was formally dissolved in 1799. Its possessions and debt were taken over by the government of the Dutch Batavian Republic. The former territories owned by the VOC went on to become the Dutch East Indies and were expanded over the course of the 19th century to include the entirety of the Indonesian archipelago. In the 20th century, these islands would form the Republic of Indonesia.

Exploitation, political meddling, and military aggression.
I’m not talking about the dictator of a banana republic; I’m talking about a private company whose personal army was three times that of the British army. The East India Company sounds like the sort of capitalistic nightmare ripped straight from the pages of a Philipp K Dick novel, but these guys were a real dystopian force.
Their time may be over, but their consequences of their actions shaped the world as we know it. In 1557, a few years before the unofficial Anglo-Spanish War, Francis Drake decided to explore the bank accounts of Spanish settlements in South America. [1] Once he plundered the Spanish colonies, he darted back across the Pacific Ocean, until touching down in the East Indies.
As Drake sails away, the Spanish throw things at him in anger. While travelling through the Molucca Islands he met Sultan Babullah, then ruler of the Sultanate of Ternate – one of the oldest Muslim Kingdoms in Indonesia.
This guy was the greatest of the Sultans having run out the Portuguese occupants. Under his rule, the Sultanate reached its golden peak thanks to his reign of free trade and access to valuable forest resources. [2]
For Francis Drake, the maritime door-to-door salesman, this was the perfect client. After all, both him and the Sultan shared a common enemy with the Portuguese, who were in cahoots with the Spanish.
Drake offered his linens, gold and silver. But let’s call it what it really was, ‘Evil Thing Number 1
So it’s time to understand how history works as tally up the evil crimes of the East India Company.

ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE IN MADRAS BEFORE 1726
In India, the administration of justice and development of courts began from 1639 to 1726 in the presidency towns of Madras, Bombay and Calcutta. In Madras, these judicial administration by the britishers developed in three stages. They are
Stage I : 1639-1665
Stage II: 1665-1683
Stage III: 1683-1726
Stage I: 1639-1665
In 1639, for the purpose of English East India company, Francis day acquired a piece of land from Hindu raja of Chandragiri which was also known as Madraspatnam. In 1640, the English East India company constructed a factory in and it was called as Fort St. George. This fort was came to be called as the white town and the people residing in other places where called as the black town. Thus, the whole people comprising of white town and black town was called as the Madras.
Agent and council:
For the purpose of governance and judicial administration, the agent and council was authorized to decide both the civil and criminal cases of people residing in the white town. But, they referred most of the cases to the England since the judiciary was vague.
These agent and council who were appointed for the administration of justice were merchants and they didn’t have the knowledge of law. So they the cases based upon their knowledge and common sense.
Choultry court:
In the black town, the native judicial officer for the administration of justice and he was known as Adigari. They tried only simple cases but not the serious offences like murder and the appeals from the court was decided by the agent and council and they were vested with the appellate jurisdiction.
An Indian native officer called Kanappa who was appointed as the adigar was dismissed from the office and the Englishmen was appointed to the office of the choultry court since kanappa misused his power.
Governor and council:
By the charter of 1661,the company was empowered to appoint governor and council to decide both the civil and criminal cases of all the persons of company.
While the cases of Englishmen referred to the England , the cases of the English east India company was decided by the English law.
Stage II:1665-1683
High court of Judicature:
In 1665, the reorganized the whole judicial system and with the help of 12 juries they sat twice a week and decided both the civil and criminal cases. The also empowered to decide the appeals from the choultry court.
Choultry court :
The old choultry court was reconstituted and the three Englishmen were appointed in the place of adikari to decide the cases. They sat twice a week and empowered to decide only civil cases up to the value of 50 pagodas. The appeals from this court was also heard by the Governor in council.
Stage III: 1665-1726
During this stage two important courts were established i.e. In 1686,Admiralty court was established with the headship of judge advocate under the charter of 1683 and Mayors court under the charter of 1687 which was issued by East India company.
Admiralty court:
Reason behind need of this court:
In Asia , Arica and America the company was given a monopoly trade and if any British subjects wanted to do trading, they supposed to get a license from the East India company. But the rights of the company were being infringes b the other British traders and on account of it a court having jurisdiction to punish such traders was felt.
To deal with the increase in Crime of piracy on the high seas they required a court of admiralty.
Functions of the Admiralty court:
In 1686, this court was established in madras by the charter of 1683 headed by the judge advocate. It consisted of one person learned in civil law and two merchants appointed by the company. The court decided,
Merits:
Here, the executive functions were carried out by the governor in council and judicial functions by the court of Admiralty. So, the separation of executive and judiciary was maintained.
Before the establishment of this court the judges were mostly laymen and decided cases based on their common sense but after the establishment of admiralty court, the judges and lawyers were mostly professionals.
But the above features didn’t continued in Madras for a long time because of the death of Sir John Biggs.
Mayor’s court:
In Madras, mayors court was established under the charter of 1687 by the English East India company.
Appeals:
The appeals from this court were decided by the court of Admiralty.
In civil matters, the admiralty court had decided more than the value of 3 pagodas and in criminal cases they decided only when the punishment is lose of life or limbs.
But , the governor in council decided both the appeals from admiralty court and mayors court.
Choultry court:
The choultry could hear the petty civil cases upto the value of 2 pagodas. But , subsequently its power also declined in 1800.
Asia (1780 EIC ship)
Asia was launched in 1780 and made six voyages as an East Indiaman for the British East India Company (EIC). She participated in three actions, two against the French and one against the Dutch. She left the EIC's service in 1799 and traded between London and Lisbon until 1802 when new owners from Embden renamed her Reine Louise de Prusse and returned her to trading with the East Indies. Asia is last listed in Lloyd's Register for 1808 on the London-Batavia trade.
EIC voyages
EIC voyage #1 (1781-83)
Asia, under the command of Captain Robert Maw, sailed from Portsmouth on 13 March 1781, bound for Bombay and China as part of a convoy of Indiamen accompanying a British squadron under Commodore George Johnstone. At about the same time as the British sailed, a French squadron under the command of Bailli de Suffren left France. Both squadrons were en route to the Cape of Good Hope, the British to take it from the Dutch, the French aiming to help defend it and French possessions in the Indian Ocean, including Rodriguez Island, Ile Bourbon (Réunion), Île de France (Mauritius), and Pondicherry.
