  1. Northern Europe in the 1400s, showing the extent of the Hanseatic League.

The Hanseatic League was a commercial and defensive confederation of merchant guilds and market towns in Northwestern and Central Europe. Growing from a few North German towns in the late 1100s, the league came to dominate Baltic maritime trade for three centuries along the coasts of Northern Europe. Hansa territories stretched from the Baltic to the North Sea and inland during the Late Middle Ages, and diminished slowly after 1450.

Hanse, later spelled as Hansa, was the Old High German word for a convoy, and this word was applied to bands of merchants traveling between the Hanseatic cities — whether by land or by sea.''

Merchant circles established the league to protect the guilds' economic interests and diplomatic privileges in their affiliated cities and countries, as well as along the trade routes which the merchants used. The Hanseatic cities had their own legal system and operated their own armies for mutual protection and aid. Despite this, the organization was not a state, nor could it be called a confederation of city-states; only a very small number of the cities within the league enjoyed autonomy and liberties comparable to those of a free imperial city.

 

UP the Rhine river implies southward toward Switzerland.

 

1474 peace treaty of Utrecht between Hanseatic league and England.

 

  1. Map of Rhine river. Upstream to Switzerland: Basel.

 

  1. Map of Switzerland. Other major Swiss cities (pardon me European anons, my knowledge of European geography is not as good as yours.) Zurich, Lausanne, Berne…

 

So we are looking for an [evil] banking entity with medieval roots going back to the Hanseatic League.

Rev 17:4 ESV

The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and jewels and pearls, holding in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her sexual immorality. 5 And on her forehead was written a name of mystery: “Babylon the great, mother of prostitutes and of earth's abominations.” 6 And I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints, the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.
