The space between the road and the bottom of the trailer frame was traditionally left open until it was realized that the turbulent air swirling under the trailer is a major source of aerodynamic drag. The board sits below a mesh on the bottom of the hive box, which keeps bees from getting caught on its gluey surface, while allowing dead mites to fall through. While one man stood inside the museum with a gun, two others located the targeted paintings. In broad daylight, one man pulled a gun while the other two grabbed the four paintings closest to the door. The gang who robbed the National Museum in Sweden in December 2000 knew their stuff: A machine gun will get you the haul, a bomb will distract police, and cars with flat tires can't respond to an alarm. Local police scattered. At the same time, other accomplices were laying spikes on the roads around the museum.

When three men walked into the E.G. Bürle Foundation museum in Zurich, Switzerland, on Feb. 12, 2008, the masterpieces didn't stand a chance. Two weeks before the Bürle heist, two Picassos were stolen from another museum nearby. Two Major Saudi Oil Installations Hit by Drone Strike, and U.S. Rail Baltica creates the possibility to shift the major freight transport in the regions Shipping from China to Morocco road to rail, which is currently being transported towards Russia and then north by heavy trucks. The eventual creation of modern-day India and the United States are but two major world events that have the East India Company's fingerprints. The British exported the opium to China, which eventually resulted in two opium wars between the countries over the drug's importation. Over the centuries, the maritime republics - both the best known and the lesser known but not always less important - experienced fluctuating fortunes. With other nations importing fortunes in goods and plunder, Queen Elizabeth decided England should get some, too.

Queen Elizabeth covered any losses or debts owed by the East India Company with the royal coffers; modern LLCs are subject to bankruptcy procedures, where creditors may be forced to take pennies on the dollar or nothing at all if a corporation goes under. If the company goes under, the investors only lose the amount of money they put into the LLC. A joint-stock corporation is composed of investors who are granted shares in a company. Under the auspices of her royal authority, Elizabeth also limited the liability of the EIC's investors -- including hers.

Le Corbusier attained several patents during his life, including one for his characteristic horizontal sliding windows that would take up the length of a building. On 20 January 2010, the Nigerian House of Representatives passed a resolution to contribute NGN7.2 million to support relief efforts. The company built forts in India to house its private army. The company was ruthless in its quest for profits.

With the establishment of martial rule (the government set up in a land occupied by military) profits could be garnered easily. The assets managed by VNF comprise 6,700 kilometres (4,200 mi) of waterways, made up of 3,800 kilometres (2,400 mi) of canals and 2,900 kilometres (1,800 mi) of navigable rivers, 494 dams, 1595 locks, 74 navigable aqueducts, 65 reservoirs, 35 tunnels and a land area of 800 km2 (310 sq mi). It included the forceful seizure of land and deposing of rulers. Thanks to factories (colonies or settlements) run by men like Yale, the East India Company was able to subjugate India and its tribal rulers. The company had its own private army and raised soldiers in the areas it subjugated. So a joint-stock corporation like the one Queen Elizabeth formed in the East India Company wasn't much of a financial leap. But granting charter to the EIC wasn't the only part of the prototype for modern corporations that Queen Elizabeth devised. Queen Elizabeth used more than just royal decree and coffers (treasury funds) to help merchants and explorers establish trade on behalf of England in the East.
