Piracy

From PotC Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search
 

Piracy is the term given to robbery at sea, or sometimes on shore, by an agent without commission from a sovereign nation. Those who commit the act of piracy—and by extension, robbery, pillaging, or plundering at sea—are known as pirates. Piracy in the Caribbean was regarded as the Golden Age of piracy, lasting from around 1560 up until some point around the 1730s. Two of the most infamous pirate bases were Port Royal and Tortuga.
