Dutch used military and navy to force people and scare people and were able to fund these because of the low interest rates so they could borrow more

They used violence to establish an overrun of the spice making islands. 
The VOC eventually died down as demand for the spices stopped and people started wanting sugar more. 
How were they able to monopolize and take over the trade market?

2. The VOC was just supposed to help make a better economy but it became its own country for the most part.
3. Made monopolies of the spice trade by military force.
4.  Were slaves used for the production of spices like they were for sugar? Or only for sugar and tobacco because they were cash crops?

2. The VOC ran like a country but had no responsibilities to people, all it had to do was make money.
3.VOC was successful due to government sponsorship with $ and military support.

4.why did the Dutch have little opposition in taking over the spice market?

2. There also traded stock (Somewhat like the modern sense) so they "shared" the risk of ships.
3. They had a near monopoly on the spice trade in the East Indies for a long time (and with that comes massive profit.)
Q. How do companies like the VOC compare to the mega-companies of today?

Like certain American colonists, the VOC made trade deals that benefitted themselves and when the indigenous people groups violated some obscure clause, the VOC pounced on the opportunity to subdue the native peoples and make a buck.]]> 2017-02-16 13:37:00 UTC https://padlet.com/golstad/fg2xlpf64nkn/wish/154294012 https://padlet.com/golstad/fg2xlpf64nkn/wish/154294259 Their are 17 members in the VOC. 
They can go to war whenever because they had military support.
They monopolized the spice trade by being stationed in Indonesia and attacking rival ships.
