Danish East India Company
The Danish East India Company〔(The Danish East India Company )〕 ((デンマーク語:Ostindisk Kompagni)) refers to two separate Danish chartered companies. The first company operated between 1616 and 1650. The second company existed between 1670 and 1729, however, in 1730 it was re-founded as the Asiatic Company (''Asiatisk Kompagni'').
==First company==
The first Danish East India Company was chartered in 1616 under King Christian IV and focused on trade with India. The first expedition, under Admiral Gjedde, took two years to reach Ceylon, losing more than half their crew. By the time they arrived, the island had been claimed by Portugal; by the end of 1619, a small Danish fleet had arrived at Trincomalee on the island's east coast; occupying the colossal Koneswaram temple in May 1620 to begin fortification of the peninsula before being defeated.〔, pp. 11-12; , note n° 66, p. 326: "Senarat of Kandy sent to Trincomalee 60 Sinhala men in order to help the Danes in the construction of their fort. During their permanence in Trincomalee, the Danesh coined also some "Larins", on which were recorded the words ‘Don Erich Grubbe’, of these coins, today do not remain trace, if not in the diary of Ove Giedde."〕 The expedition instead established Dansborg in Tranquebar on the mainland coast and installed Captain Crappe as the first governor (''opperhoved'') of Danish India.〔''Foreningen Trankebar''. "(Artikel om en tur fra Chennai til Trankebar )".〕 During its heyday, the Danish East India Company and Swedish East India Company imported more tea than the British East India Company, smuggling 90% of it into England, where it could be sold at a huge profit. The company was dissolved in 1650.
