b) Merchant Order and Cities, putting things on a historical perspective in geopolitical terms


Merchant Order and Cities

Bruge ---- the central rudder stock
Venice ---- the caravel
Antwerp ---- printing
Genoa ----- accounting
Amsterdam --- the fluyt
London --- the steam engine
Boston ---- the piston engine
New York --- the electric engine
Los Angeles --- the microchip


c) Second about the shift of paradigm in the order city to still maintain geopolitical control


XX                                                   XXI

Oncle Sam                                            Oncle Google

d) how the geopolitical control is related to enterprises each one dominating one field related to the geopolitical control and the digital condition
