The Battle of Derne occurred in 1805 during the First Barbary War, primarily as a response to ongoing piracy and the demand for tribute by the Barbary States, specifically Tripoli. The United States aimed to secure safe passage for its merchant ships in the Mediterranean by capturing Derne, a strategic port city. Led by Lieutenant William Eaton and U.S. Marines, the battle was part of a broader effort to defeat the forces of the Tripolitan ruler, Yusuf Karamanli, and assert American naval power. The successful capture of Derne marked a significant moment in U.S. military history and foreign policy.
