What about what ever entities that went after the Spice islands? Or east india company? I guess they were commissioned from the monarchies or parliment themselves so perhaps they don't count. Perhaps the oil companies of today?

either way it would be interesting to know, if records still exists about their worth.

  From what I understand, it was the oil, sugar, or gold of its day. Controlling the spice islands was akin to controlling international trade.
