Ahem
The first sentence of the article:
...and?
Let's take any contemporary multinational, say Sony. Wikipedia (emphasis mine):
Actually the sentence you cite does contain the word "multinational' while the above sentence I cited doesn't.
There a trend that modern multinational corporations don't feel like they belong to any single country. Of cause they tend to comply as much with local laws as necessary to avoid getting into trouble but they don't they themselves as belonging to any single nation.
The East India Company had its own currency, military vessels, and colonial governors. It effectively functioned like an independent state, much like our modern corporations seem to want to one day.
