The Mercantile Assemblage is just that, a group of economically minded nations and corporations. Working, and trading in unison to derive the largest benefit, and thus profit possible for all its members. And to defend and protect the institution of free trade in all member states. Along with this, it also regulates trade between members, discusses price setting, and restrictions to be placed on certain goods. It is to be expected that member nations and groups shall share their technological advancements between each other. Even if it is only giving the items at a discounted price, without revealing the assembly process and make-up, or for certain items the design plans.
Finally, the funds donated or earned by the Assemblage. Shall be used to bail out, help members in recovery efforts when needed, and to finance prospective projects and explorations.
