  • Maybe this isn't the most "China history flavored" topic but The Honorable Company did play a somewhat starring role during the Qing Dynasty starting from about the Jiaqing Emperor. In this first of a two-part series, I am offering you an overview of who they were, where they came from and how they came to be so hated by so many.
    I originally did this series for Cathay Pacific Airways' Inflight Entertainment system as an accompaniment to the "Taboo" miniseries starring Tom Hardy. And now I'm taking these leftovers out of the fridge, taking the foil off and after sixty seconds in the microwave....here it is....in two easy to digest parts. Enjoy!

      @@dbler87 because if people knew what happened in those times there would probably be riots in the streets. The horrors of colonialism later giving birth to today's capitalism are deemed best forgotten by the powers that be. Hence why today people say the honorable company was anything but honorable.
