Overview
From Wikipedia
Planet Trade Organization or the World Trade Organization (occasionally referred to as just "Frieza's Army") is the organization apparently run by King Cold and his two sons, Frieza and Cooler (Cooler only if movies are counted as canon). The Planet Trade Organization employs and enslaves powerful races such as the Saiyans, to take over suitable planets so that they can be sold to the highest bidders. According to the Daizenshuu, King Cold is not known by the organization as its leader for unknown reasons. Thus, it could be said Frieza is its true official leader. The organization has never been given an official name, and it should be noted that "Planet Trade Organization" is a name used just so there is a term for this group. However, Krillin does refer to the organization's members as belonging to the "planet trade."
History
It is never stated when this organization began or any detail of its origins, all that is known is that it is apparently led by King Cold (the emperor) and his sons. Many formidable races are forced into the organization with the threat of their own planets destruction if they do not comply. With their great power, King Cold and his sons apparently held a giant iron fist over the galaxy, controlling almost all planets under one giant dictatorship, and use fear and power to get races of comply. Frieza alone is shown to be in control of at least 79 planets, and Cooler in control of at least 256 planets with no mention of how many King Cold owns. They are also shown destroying planets that they believe are not suitable for sale (Cooler states in his debut that he has several planets to destroy by the end of the day). No other leaders of this organization are ever shown, if any for that matter. The organization seemed to have officially ended with the deaths of King Cold and Frieza by Future Trunks in 764 Age, and Cooler's death by the hands of Goku and Vegeta a short time later, thus bringing peace to the galaxy.
Armour & Technology
The organization uses many different types of technology's. These include Scouters, which are devices that are used mostly for calculating the individual Power level or ki concentration of biological creatures. They use half plant half humaoid creatures called Saibamen to test an opponent's fighting skill. Known weapons are the blasters and arm cannons. The Attack Balls that were used as the Saiyans primary means of interplanetary travel was given to them by the Arcosians, apparent members of the Planet Trade Organization. Many other advanced space ships are seen in use as well. Warrior members such as the Saiyans, are also seen wearing different types of armors.
Races enslaved and involved
There are hundreds if not thousands of races enslaved, most notably the Saiyans. These races are employed in different ways depending on their strength. Groups like the Saiyans, who are shown to have great fighting abilities, are given many freedoms for showing their worth by conquering and destroying planets. All three leaders are also shown to have their select armies, workers, and technicians. Many powerful and high ranking members such as Zarbon and Dodoria who accompany Frieza at all times, are also known to be loyal followers, whom are shown mercy and named right-hand men in return. They, like many others, are shown to enjoy their work of pillaging and murdering with no remorse. Many other members of some races are hired for combat, such as The Ginyu Force, Cooler's Armored Squadron or the brother duo of Abo and Kado. The leaders are also shown creating super elite groups to do dirty work, such as the group of warriors that killed Bardock's team or men like the ones in Cooler's squadron.
