Legends of the Indian Ocean: A World of Forgotten Pirates

Описание: The Indian Ocean was not the Caribbean.
It was a vast world of trade routes, peoples, and empires that had existed long before the arrival of the first European merchants. And it was here — among Mughal pilgrim fleets, Arab traders, Indian textile ships, and African ivory routes — that a completely different era of piracy was born.

For thirty years, this ocean became the stage for the greatest pirate hauls in history, the most dramatic diplomatic crises caused by pirates, and the most complex cultural clashes ever associated with piracy.

This video is the first episode of the series Legends of the Indian Ocean.
