The National Trade Fleet, otherwise known as the Heldervinian Trading Company, is a Heldervinian chartered trading and joint-stock company based in Figerbün. Founded in 1518, it was formed to trade in the Heldervinian city-states; following the unification of the city-states, the Trade Fleet quickly expanded and soon began relying on a large merchant fleet to keep up with the demand. Thus, the company became a maritime trading company, and still is. The company possesses quasi-governmental powers, able to mint its own coins and wage war with other trading companies.
