Kings and Generals historical animated documentary series on the history of the early modern world, continues with a video on the golden age of Piracy. In the aftermath of the War of Spanish Succession, thousands of sailors found themselves jobless, sparking a wave of piracy across the Atlantic world. From Queen Anne’s War and Privateering to the rise of the Pirate Republic of Nassau, this video explores how former privateers like Benjamin Hornigold and Edward Teach (Blackbeard) turned to piracy. The infamous 1715 Treasure Fleet Raid near Florida became a pivotal moment, enriching and emboldening these rogue crews. We trace the Rise of Notorious Pirates such as Blackbeard, Charles Vane, and “Black Sam” Bellamy as they terrorized shipping routes from the Caribbean to the American colonies. But the pirate lifestyle was more than plunder—Pirate Life and British Crackdown reveals the democratic structure aboard pirate ships, the diverse backgrounds of their crews, and the harsh realities of life at sea. Watch as Britain finally moves to suppress the Pirate Republic and reassert control over its trade routes.
