Answer» In 1600, a group of English businessmen asked Elizabeth I for a royal CHARTER that WOULD let them voyage to the EAST INDIES on behalf of the crown in exchange for a monopoly on trade. The merchants put up nearly 70,000 POUNDS of their own money to finance the venture, and the East India Company was born. |
