Actually the British EIC and the Dutch EIC where two different organizations. The British EIC was known as the Hounorable East India Company and the Dutch EIC was known as VOC (acronym for the Dutch name). There was also a Swedish EIC and and a Danish EIC. The Dutch and the British where enemies and competitors at the time. I've seen it referred to most often as the East India company so that's why I use EIC. The British EIC dominated the the Caribbean so the the men in black we are dealing with are no doubt British. As a side note, the EIC was in no small part responsible for the American Revolution.
