When did the Hanseatic League dominate trade in northern Europe?

The Hanseatic League dominated commercial activity in northern Europe from the 13th to the 15th century.1

During this period, the league secured a near-monopoly on long-distance trade, particularly within the Baltic Sea region, by leveraging the cooperation of north German towns and merchant communities. While the league's influence began to wane in the 15th century due to rising competition from Dutch and English traders, the growth of centralized nation-states, and internal divisions, it remained a significant force until its gradual decline and eventual dissolution in the 17th century.213
