As you might have noticed, a featured a few pictures drawn by members from our Discord server. I challenged our artists last week to create art based on the Boucaniers from last week's video, since there isn't enough art dedicated to them! If you're still working on your picture or want to do one, don't worry, I'm going to feature it in the upcoming videos I make. On another note, happy birthday to our Tarpaulin-Officer, Grim, from the Discord server. This video goes out to ye, matey

Just wanted to mention I’m really appreciating the slightly slower pace of your videos. It’s a lot easier for me to follow all the info! Thanks for putting out quality content!

For being such a small and young channel, you put out amazingly high quality content! I look forward to your future videos. Thank you so much for providing well researched and understandably presented content, keep on!

I believe I saw you mention this before, but I'd love to one day see a series analyzing pirate pop culture and media. From Treasure Island to AC 4

I really like the artwork you put in videos. It appears like discord has a lot of fun.

A beer Gold and gunpowder a joint , what a evening

"Brethren of the Coast" still exists today, and now like then without any organisation. In my brothers studies of nordic maritime culture one of the guest teachers was actually member of Brethren of the coast. He had been sailing somewhere in the Pacific Ocean where he rescued a man who happened to be a pirate captain. As thanks the pirate made him an honorary member of "Brethren of the Coast". While there is no organisation and therefore no proof of his membership, should a situation occur and his claims to be a member is believed or can even be proved (perhaps by someone who have heard the pirate captain spread the word of him), every pirate worldwide is oblibed to never harm him, and help him should he be in need.

Reast in peace Mr Bailey

Yes a new upload!

That was great ! Next video idea : pirate ships of ile-Saint Marie's pirates like William Kidd's Quedah Merchant, Dirk Chivers' Soldado and Rober Culliford's Mocha Frigate.

Great video very informative keep on posting

Great video! This is a fantastic channel

Was there an actual transition of some Buccaneers from Tortuga/Port Royal travelling to Nassua to the beginnings of the Pirate republic/Flying Gang? I'm quite interested at the various cultures and groups in the Carribean, and how continuous some are. The Logwood cutters in general look fairly long-lived around Belize.

Honestly, in my mind, no one seems to use the right word for the Brethern of the Coast. They were largely naval and/or marine mercenaries. I mean, some did do pirate stuff (as in off the books hits with no contracr), but really, that was an individual case by case issue. A pirate attacks out side of their nations laws, a privateer is given a letter of marque usually with no actual destination, just attack the "baddies." BotC were given aproximate and sometimes quite specific targets, and even worked in conjuction with standing militaries and militias. The fact that they were the main part of Jamaica's land and sea deffence force only highlights the point that they had more in common with Executive Outcomes than the Hells Angels.

God bless you, Master Bailey.. That you be a hero and savior to our piratical hearts..

i feel like this channel will explode with subscribers... idk. Great content! Thanks!!

Great channel

dope!!!

RIP

3:12 "FETCH... the comfy chair" 🤪

And the second part of bucaneer's history, now that was a interesting watch now to wait for another epic history vidoe Definitley the fryingpan part did not got stuck in my head

well done

Man, yeah life was dirty, unconfortable and hard back then, but what a time to be alive it must have been!

12:14 Pan!

Are you aware of the new tv series on Netflix “The Lost Pirate Kingdom”? It seems very interesting and I recommend it for any true Pirate fan.

Thank you very much for your work ! It's great to have words to put on this hotch-pot of greasy beardy men.

Nice video, another Scottish clan who committed piracy the MacLeods would be a good video to make in the future as well. There story of piracy is a bit more different to my clan

RIP off to pirate Valhalla

Note to viewers: Favorite means "used the most" and not "liked the most"

One key to understand bucaneers, privateers, pirates, etc. is that they disappeared when they were no more useful for England, France or The Netherlands against Spain. Those countries couldn't win an open war one by one against Spain (with a few exceptions, although they kept trying for 300 years), so they reverted to "privateers" to do the dirty work. By the way, the same tactics had also been used by Spain against other countries, so I'm not claiming moral superiority here. Most of the pirates and corsaires did what we nowadays would call terrorism and theft usually against Spanish towns and cargo ships. There were very few cases of pirates, corsaires or armies winning against Spanish battleships or fortresses in America. See the case of Jenkins, Vernon, Morgan, and other "gentlemen" overhyped by English propaganda. By the way, Spain was always nearly bankrupt. Most of the gold and silver brought from America to Spain was spent in Europe, paying loans or wars, and the rest was kept by the powerful elites, so Spanish people were none the richer. The main problem for Spain was not the pirates, but the lack of enough population or economic resources to battle in so many different places against so many enemies, while they also built more than 200 towns, 800 hospitals, 30 universities, roads, mines, discovered half of the world, civilized the canibal neolithic tribes in America, gave them equal rights and citizenship and many more enterprises. They didn't just conquer, kill and loot, as the black legend says. Finally, the Spanish empire was not defeated but slowly exhausted. Of course there were also many internal mistakes and mismanagement. Once the other countries got their own territorial and economic interests in America and Asia, and the attacked ships were English, they stopped sponsoring pirates and chased or hired them instead. What I mean is: Let's not idealize them, they were instrumental pawns in the chess play of the empires. Very interesting ones, nonetheless, who were often able to outmatch the official armies with very little resources. I hope a different perspective is welcome into the debate and enriches this very interesting channel.

HA haaaa Lol!!! Torture him by tickling his feet with a feather.
