The company was owned by magnates and close allies to the [[Vile King Lucius IV|Eternal Emperor]], who gave them the monopoly of transport of goods across the oceans, including the commercialisation of enslaved people, and the management of slave-driven extractivist operations in the colonies, like mining operations and plantations. At the end of the [[Reign of Terror]], with the abolishment of slavery, the GHTC was dismantled, with each of its local branches broken down into minor companies that were geared towards moving local economies. In [[Fortuna]], the mining operations were dismantled into the companies that became the [[Fortunan Mining Consortium]].
