The Dutch East Martian Company (DEMC), (Dutch: Nederlandse Oost-Martiaanse Compagnie; NOMC) is a Dutch corporation based in the Arkanian Colony of the Netherlands and is funded by the Dutch government. The DEMC was established in 2037 as a Mars exploration and colonization company.
The Dutch East Martian Company is one of several entities currently working together to establish a large, multinational permanent settlement on Mars.
== History ==
=== Founding ===
The Dutch East Martian Company was founded in mid-2037 to provide the Arkanian Colony of the Netherlands with a suitable mars exploration company. This company recieved initial funding from the main Imperial Arkanian government but would later be funded by the Dutch government.
=== First Dutch Settlers on Mars ===
Later in 2037, the first Dutch Mars rocket along with the Mars capsule would be developed. Four human 
settlers would be sent to Mars soon after. A few other rockets containing the necessary supplies required for building the colony were also sent. The Dutch astronauts then began cooperating with the other astronauts already there.
=== Cooperation with Other Groups ===
After the colony's first structures were built, the DEMC began to 
cooperate with the Belgian Gewurz Civilian Space Military to develop a transport ship. This new transport would be based off of the old Arkanian CR-40 Transport Ship, which had its schematics provided to the DEMC as a base for the new starship. The new ship would be smaller, armed with two newly designed Type-16 Dual-Barrel Rotary Point-Defense Cannons. This new starship would be known as the CR-O "Omega" Light Transport Ship and would serve both the DEMC and GCSM.
