	Spice trade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Trade in the East Indies was dominated by Portugal in the 16th century, the Netherlands in the 17th century, and the British in the 18th century.
		Ibn Khordadbeh also reported that spices were brought from the east to Europe by Jewish merchants known as the Radhanites; in other sources, such as the writings of Gregory of Tours, Jews are reported to have enjoyed a virtual monopoly on the trade in Western Europe during the late Merovingian and early Carolingian periods.
		The ideal of the Spice Islands, eventually to be enveloped by the Netherlands' Dutch East Indies empire, had led to the accidental discovery of the West Indies, and lit the fuse of centuries of rivalry between European maritime powers for control of lucrative global markets and resources.

		Some of these spices were traded by Arab middlemen (that is the product did not originate or terminate in their hands), while spice-plants indigenous to Arab lands were primarily the kinds used to produce "aromatic resin, oleo-resins and gums" (7) which were the bases of perfumes, incense and aromatic oils.
		Trading was vital to this process because of the continued return of traders after periods of letting the new religion acclimated to the new culture, and vice versa.
		Although there is minuscule documentation and extensive disagreement over what kinds of spices were traded, in what quantities, when and to whom, there is virtually universal agreement on the role of the spice trade in the spread of Islam.
