Episode 9 - "Mayken‪"‬ Island

    • History

In doing anything and everything he can to see to it that this fledgling "colony" survives, Minuit suddenly finds himself facing a reckoning - a moral stranglehold that forces the pious Calvinist, but devoted public servant to re-evaluate his every move.

Because by late summer 1627, when the "possessions" being taken from their Iberian enemies transition from silver and timber to twenty-two human beings from Angola, Governor Pierre Minuit needs to look deep inside the soul of Walloon Pierre Minuit in a powerful struggle between the tenets that drive his soul, and the Company that pays his salary.
