Merchants were often ruled by a combination of local governments, trade guilds, and sometimes powerful merchant class leaders or merchant republics. In medieval Europe, for instance, city-states like Venice and Genoa had merchant leaders who influenced trade policies. Additionally, in many societies, a king or emperor may have imposed regulations over trade practices, taxes, and market access. Thus, the governance of merchants varied significantly based on historical and geographical contexts.
