Everything Everywhere Daily - The Hanseatic League (Encore)

One of the most successful enterprises of the Middle Ages was a collection of free cities located in Northern Germany and along the North and Baltic Seas. 

These cities created one of the greatest trade networks that the world had ever seen and, for several centuries, dominated trade and economics in Northern Europe.

It was the early prototype for successful trade organizations in the future.
