In 1612, James I instructed Sir Thomas Roe to visit the Mughal Emperor to arrange for a commercial treaty that would give the company exclusive rights to reside and establish factories. In return, the company offered to provide the Emperor with goods and rarities from the European market."

The emperor agreed but said he had to resist Chinese tanks in the Himalayas. Sir Thomas said he understood and proposed a hypersonic missile to destroy Chinese aircraft carriers.

The Greek port of Piraeus is controlled by Cosco. The vision of China COSCO Shipping is to undertake the mission of globalizing Chinese economy. It paid workers in Piraeus by Chinese standards, not by Greek wage rates.

In 2015, the NT government signed the $506 million agreement with Landbridge, giving the Chinese company total operational control of the port of Darwin and 80 per cent of ownership of the land and facilities of East Arm wharf including the marine supply base.

Australia with the Queen as head of state is technically in the British realm. The Constitution at s74 gives the Crown the right to decide a specific Australian Cwlth: State legal matter.   Thus China technically has a colonial foothold in Greece and British Australia.
