Starting in the late nineteenth century, Somalia began to be colonized by Europe. Britain, France, Italy, Egypt and Ethiopia colonized Somalia. Egypt first took over the coast in 1875. Britain wanted to take over the coast of Somalia, in order to guard the Suez Canal. Britain negotiated with local tribe leaders to gain more land. Five years after Egypt's colonization, Britain created the British Somali land (Somalia History). Britain also wanted most of the northern coast to gain resources such as mutton and livestock. The French on the other hand originally wished for a part of Egypt but were expelled by the British. There they had wanted a coal station on the red sea to strengthen links with China. Because they couldn't receive the part of Egypt, they took control of a section of Somalia. Italy was the most inexperienced country out of the Europeans. They only wished not to deal with any other countries while conquering a country. They got just this and took over southern Somalia without any issues

Is it legal for mercenaries hired by cargo ship companies to shoot and kill somali pirates?
If the Somalian pirates are threatening or attacking the ship, yes, it is perfectly legal for the mercenaries to shoot at and kill the pirates. And they have done.
The mercenaries are hired to protect the ship and the crew. They are often armed with automatic assault rifles for shooting at sea, automatic sub machine guns for shooting at pirates who have boarded the ship (smaller space = smaller guns) and handguns as a secondary. Some larger corporations may also include a LAW rocket launcher for sinking small vessels.
The British and French navy also patrol waters where pirates are known and attack or detain them. Piracy is just as illegal today as it was hundreds of years ago, and the fight against it is still on.
