In summary

From Middle High German hanse (“guild”), from Old High German hansa (“group; community; guild”), from Proto-West Germanic *hansu, from Proto-Germanic *hansō.
The modern specification of these sense follows Middle Low German hanse (“guild; Hanseatic League”), which is itself an early borrowing from Middle High German.
