Who are pirate?
In the days of the sailing ship, pirates were the blood-thirsty thieves of the unchartered seas. Pirates were common along the shores of Africa and in the Caribbean, where they would attack ships that were taking supplies to trade with the settlements there. In the modern day, piracy occurs off the coasts of Africa where there is no effective naval law. It also occurs in the islands of southeast Asia and to a lesser extent in the West Indies. The object of modern piracy is theft of vessels or ransoming their crews and cargos.
