Which people established the world's first trading empire?

Asked by NayNayscpa1

Answer (3)

When I think of a trading empire, the first nation that comes to my mind are the Phoenicians. I don't know if they were the first to actually be considered to be a trading empire, but I do know they are the first to be called the GREATEST trading empire. The entire Phoenician kingdom was based on economic trades. Located near the Nile, exporting and importing were simple. This empire was also considered to be the first to trade purple dye, the color the Romans adopted as royalty.

The Phoenicians are often recognized as the world's first trading empire, flourishing from around 1200 BCE to 539 BCE and establishing a vast network of trade across the Mediterranean. Known for their maritime skills and trade in goods such as purple dye, their city-states like Tyre and Carthage played crucial roles in ancient commerce. Their innovations in shipping and currency helped shape the trading practices of future civilizations.
