West Coast Trading Company

The West Coast Trading Company, Officially known as **The West Ocean Trading Company**, is an upstart capitalist group formed on the western side of Chartis' **Central Island.**

## Diplomatic Relations

The West Ocean Trade Company (WOTC) is a merchant party within Chartis who has not only profit insentives in mind when creating alliegences but also are out for those they consider "company friends."

Market Borders are open to all parties that wish to trade as of 13th Nov. 2023. However, due to progressing warring theats between **Gapple** and **Solitude Of Man**, to which these threats were routinely supported by the **United Qaaza Federation**, they saught allegience with the newfound Moonfall Kingdom on 23rd Nov. 2023. This was marginally due to Synechis' call for murchant aid, but TWOTC considered this route for both protection, financial benefits, and political power to support Gapple when the need arises. As Moonfall and Gapple found themselves allied in the battle, and with Qaaza members unlawfully killing GodOfSparkles, TWOTC had been forced to announce war with the United Qaaza Federation. Standing alongside Moonfall Kingdom and The Gapple Empire on 24th Nov. 2023. Through this, West Ocean Trading Company also closed markets to all Qaaza members, their nations, and their allies.

## Lands under the banner of West Ocean Trading Company

### The West Ocean Trade

Main trading hub ran by endermannoises in the middle of the West Ocean. **Joined the Company from 13th Nov. 2023.**

### West Ocean Partners

The largest claimed land of WOTC and the main base of resource development, run by Retr06; who is accompanied by GodOfSparkles and KimmyTheMoron. **Joined the Company from 14th Nov. 2023.**

### West Coast Waypoint

An upcoming land colony on the Centre-Westland continent that was granted on 20th Nov. 2023 following an expansion and map disputes regarding visibility of offshore WOTC claims. A shorebase that is currently kept under RatLantis rule until a porper headway has been made. There is a two to three block tall wall of deepslate seperating the claimed land from the rest of the continent for now following the Chunk Borders. The wall itself is within the territory of WOTC. This land solidified the technical control of the ***Trader's Pass***, as some WOTC members call it. Amusingly, this land and **West Ocean Partners** are the claims which justified the name "West Coast Trading Company. **Joined the Company from 20th Nov. 2023**

### Dark Forest Brewery

On 22nd Nov. 2023, TWOTC were alterted to a new claimed land within their political territory. This was the Dark Forest Brewery, owned by Spooky and Eros. After simple diplomatics, they were assimilated under the WOTC claim and the smallest crisis of TWOTC history was forever set in stone. **Joined the company from 22nd Nov. 2023**

## Land Development

Members of the Company find their economic footing through farming Beetroot, which would be then converted to bonemeal to speed up the regrowth process when necessary. In more recent development, trading with villagers for Beetroot in return for emerals had become a much more valuable resource. **West Ocean Partners** was created on the west of the Central Mainland, known to some as *Geschland* or *Isles of Centoria,* in order to produce all the farmland required for this task. And whilst it has switched to villager farming, sites like **West Coast Waypoint** still use Bonemeal Composting. The island was first settled upon by Retr06 and KimmyTheMoron, before later being accompanied by GodOfSparkles in recent days.

The method of export that WOTC use is **Wholesale Trading.** To which a client commissions a variety of materials to be gathered for them in return of payment. Similar to "buying in bulk." As of 20th Nov. 2023, West Ocean Partners had begun construction of the **West Ocean Market.** The intention is to sell market products, the remainder of produced or imported goods, and be supplied with Wholesale Commissions in a localized area that WOTC can streamline.

West Ocean Trade has created a central trading station within the ocean in order to centralize its own resources. However, its purpose is beginning to shape as a headquarters to the West Ocean Partners and other subsidary lands. Within the group, it is recognized as the primary location of WOTC on a geopolitical level.

## Economics

As of 20th Nov. 2023, the culmative money from the landmass of West Ocean Partners and its residents is 14,800. This does not include The West Coast Trade, LoneWolfGamingYT (a member of West Coast Partners) or endermannoises (Founder and leader of West Ocean Trade). However, this still holds them with a sizeable balance which is slowly expanding as the company matures. Whilst not as rich as some larger multi-colony nations (Read: **Holy Land of Qaaza**), WOTC is still a decent financial player due to its insentive on Wholseale Trading and committment to making Trade & Political fronts open to outsiders.
