Historical background of guilds

Guilds have always motivated by the shared interests and goals of their members. The first guilds were founded at the beginning of the 8th century in what is now France. The primary goal of the members was the safe transport of goods; guilds provided fast and reliable support in cases of emergencies and accidents on either land or sea. Some guilds were so successful that they were able to establish trade monopolies in cities and in some cases in whole regions. These monopolies gave the guilds political power, so much so that at times a guild could control whole cities.

One of the most important, successful and famous guilds of that time was the "Hanseatic League" ()
