History
On 10th August 2010, "The Merchants" was formed. The crew was sponsored by Ronnier and Captainnkid. As soon as the crew hit Rumored fame, the crew sailed Ronnier's flag. As the monarch of the flag got banned, the leaders of the crew decided to create their own flag named "Last Crusaders". The new flag hit Eminent fame within no time and attracted over 5 crews. But, a slight misunderstanding between the captain and few of his SOs led to the Disintegration of the flag. Hence, the founder-crew, The Merchants, left the flag. This left the flag to rot and disintegrate day by day. The crew then sailed to one of the best flags, Sage' Syndicate. The crew helped the flag in number of blockades and also helped 'em to win Bowditch island.
