Which generation was your favorite? 🏴‍☠️

There's not so much pirate books in my country, but the one I really enjoyed was my first real swashbuckler/pirate book. It's titled "Galeony Wojny" which takes place in polish cityport Gdańsk and Baltic sea during polish-swedish war of 1626-29. Although not being about pirates themselves, there are lots of privateers, pirates, scoundrels, intrigue and action. Also it's generally beautifully written.

Hi, man, nice channel, but we NEED a video on different ship types and how to differentiate them, what were their traits, strengths and weaknesses.

The 1980 raid on Panama is one of the most cracked stories I have heard in my whole life. Traveling through the Isthmus in canoes is unbelievable

The silver age of piracy is underrated, there’s some successful pirates that aren’t talked about much

At 3:56, pirates became integrated into navies, rather being loose cannons...those cannons need stronger lashings to secure them to the deck 😆

Love the hidden skull and bone in the clouds in the painting at 11:57

I love having maps as a substitute for a letter of marque I can't get over that.

Great channel, so glad i found it

Love the series. Too many suggestions to list, but I'm sure you'll get to them eventually. Just keep doing what you're doing and we're all lucky to enjoy it. As for books, Tim Severin wrote a fantastic historical fiction series about pirates. Book 1 was set on the Barbary Coast, Book 2 in Jamaica, then the Spanish Main, and finally the Spice Islands. He's not necessarily focused on pirate minutia but they're still a fantastic read. For non-fiction I'll suggest Apocalypse 1962 by Ben Hughes - which deals with the Port Royal earthquake.

Just found this channel yesterday and its so much fun!!!

Absolutely love your content. Keep up the great work brother

Nicely done again. Thank you for these videos. They help my mind pass the time.

This was one of the best videos on the topic if seen yet... Gonna have to come back for your other ones too!

Loving this channel

Amazing and educative as always

One day the algorithm lord will bless you . Everyone here are Ogs

Nice video

another Amazing video . Keep sharing this vital time period of history.and hoist the black ...

i think the Silver age with all the acts that the media propagandized is my favorite. got to love a Flamboyant Pirate sticking it to the man...

Thank you. I am researching pirate ships for an art challenge. I am designing pirate ships and a naval port. in the challenge brief they wanted frigate like ships but 16 men crew. That makes confused they want small ship but look like frigates that carries hundreds of men. Maybe I go crazy design something too fantasy inspired but trying to design more grounded. I will design 2 masted ship with max 16 canons(not decided yet) if I have time to finish I will design couple more ships (raiding ship and big smuggler ship) . Thank You for the videos.

Wait for the Wombat Gun

Tragedy! Justice! Magistrate's Court.

I love it!

Good video

Here's my pirate meme : Calico Jack : Hey mates , I have some bad news , Edward England's crew mutinied and marooned him on a deserted island.😞 Charles Vane : Really !!! Oh man , although he was too goody goody , he was a great fellow and member of our society. 😞😟🥺 Blackbeard : Yeah , I agree.😞😞😞 (Suddenly, the door of the bar opens , and a naked man appears holding a half-destroyed raft) Calico Jack : England !!! Are you okay ? Can I get you something to eat or drink ? 😃😃😃 Edward England : No , I still have plenty of coconuts.😠😠😠🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥🥥 Charles Vane : What happened to your clothes ?🤨🤨🤨🤨 Edward England : I ate them.😠😠😠😡😡😡

Awesome vid, hope to see more niche pirate content!

A lot of photos depict tattoos on the pirates but that was more of a native tradition that wasn't adapted until much later for saliors in the mid 1900s. I think you covered this in a video before but can't recall.

You should play the game "Sea of Thieves". Not very realistic but very fun - multiple types of ships, voyages, quests, and two different storylines, one revolving around Pirates of the Caribbean, which they recently partnered with.

Don't forget Oliver labuse

Re: Roberts taking fishing vessels: I don't really understand why fishing boats were taken by pirates. The boats wouldn't be useful as additional vessels to use and the cargo was...uh...fish. Were they taking the fish and selling them, like any other stolen cargo? Somehow that doesn't seem very...well...piratical. I can understand wanting their crewmen, fisherman being excellent sailors, although without voluntary cooperation I can't see having very many unwilling crewmen being a good thing aboard ship. So, what gives? Why did Black Bart capture 200 fishing boats? Let me say, as I do with all my posts to your channel, how much I appreciate the excellent historical work you're doing. This entire period is an almost inexhaustible mine of relevant historical information. The foundations of the entire mercantile system upon which modern capitalism is founded evolved during this time. The use of 'private military contractors' is nothing new, since most of the buccaneers were basically mercenary forces employed by various governments for both economic and diplomatic reasons ("If you or any of your IM force are caught, the Secretary will disavow all knowledge of your actions.") The relationship between 'pirates' and governments was a marriage of convenience, and like so many such marriages, when one party found the other party no longer 'convenient', there was a messy divorce.

More cattle and barbque. Any pacific Buccaneering or Swashbuckling?

Really interesting to learn more about pirates in the 17th century, since the early 18th century dominates most people's understanding of piracy.

you had forgotten the Algerian corsairs, at their time they controlled the entire Mediterranean and no one passed without paying, even the United States concluded a treaty with Algeria so as not to have a problem

Bart Roberts was probably the last pirate

Pirate Jean Lafitte video

How much notable piracy happened post 1730? Was there ever a notable attack or anything or was it fairly quiet ever since. All I know of is Somalia, other than that nothing.

The Virgin Marcus Rediker vs the Chad Angus Konstom

What about John paul Jones or Jean Lefoot

Isn’t this a good argument for YOU to open the scope of this channel to include stuff outside of this 100 period that you’re focusing on? No disrespect I love the content and the feel of the channel, it looks like you do weekly uploads, 👍 the algo loves that, viewers too, you interact with comments. All good things, but I saw a comment saying to do a video of Magellan, and I think your response was something like “Magellan operated around 1730, that’s far too early” you might have said he’s not a pirate as well, I forget exactly, but my point is that I would be just fine with watching something like that. I’d watch.

the 1720s to 1800s where the golden age of seafaring
