Mercantile Republic

A Mercantile Republic is a political system where the government is influenced or controlled by commercial interests and wealthy merchants. In this model, economic power is pivotal, and policies often prioritize trade, commerce, and the interests of business owners. The government is typically organized to support wealth creation and protect market interests, often at the expense of broader democratic principles. This system may lead to a focus on economic growth and trade relationships, shaping laws and governance to favor the merchant class in exchange for political stability and influence.
