Instruction of 1782 : ウィキペディア英語版
Royal Greenland Trading Department

The Royal Greenland Trading Department ((デンマーク語:Den Kongelige Grønlandske Handel), KGH) was a Danish state enterprise charged with administering the realm's settlements and trade in Greenland. The company managed the government of Greenland from 1774 to 1908 through its Board of Managers in Copenhagen and a series of Royal Inspectors and Governors in Godthaab and Godhavn on Greenland. The company was headquartered at Grønlandske Handels Plads at Christianshavn.
Following the introduction of home rule in Greenland in 1979, the company was reformed into several successors, including the KNI conglomerate, the Royal Greenland fishing company, and the Royal Arctic shipping company.
==History==
The Royal Greenland Trading Department was founded in 1774 as a successor to the failed General Trade Company (') which had previously managed the Dano-Norwegian whaling stations and Lutheran and Moravian missions in Greenland.
At first, it possessed a monopoly on trade near the Danish trading stations and missions but, in 1776, this was expanded to a monopoly on all trade in Greenland whatsoever between the 60th and 73d parallels north.〔Marquardt, Ole. "(Change and Continuity in Denmark's Greenland Policy )" in ''The Oldenburg Monarchy: An Underestimated Empire?''. Verlag Ludwig (Kiel), 2006.〕 The change in protection led to a sharp downturn in new settlements and, after a brief abortive attempt to manage a government-owned Scandinavian whaling fleet, led the company to focus on trade with the local Inuit hunters. The Instruction of 1782 divided the colony into northern and southern halves, forbade senior management from intermarriage with native or racially-mixed women and lower-ranking employees from intermarriage with native or European women,〔Seiding, Inge. "(Colonial Categories of Rule – Mixed Marriages and Families in Greenland around 1800 )". ''Kontur'', No. 22 (2011).〕 and banned further attempts to urbanize the Inuit or alter their traditional way of life through improved employment opportunities or sales of luxury items. Large premiums were charged on goods such as sugar and coffee in order to prevent the Inuit from 'softening' and abandoning their demanding work.〔
Repeated attempts to end the department's monopoly on trade were defeated, notably by an impassioned defense of the company's practices by its director Hinrich Rink,〔 but local councils were established in 1857 with authority over one-fifth of each station's profits and the valuable trade in cryolite extracted from Ivigtut was granted to a different company in 1864.〔Doody, Richard. ''The World at War''. "(GREENLAND 1721 - 1953 )". Accessed 28 Apr 2012.〕 In 1908, the Ministry of the Interior took over general administration and, in 1912, the entire trading operation was brought under its supervision as well.〔
