How Pirates Communicated Across Oceans Without Radios

Описание: Long before radios, satellites, or encrypted signals, pirates still managed to coordinate attacks, share intelligence, and control entire stretches of ocean. Across thousands of miles of open water, pirate crews relied on clever, low-tech communication systems that were surprisingly effective — and often invisible to outsiders.

This video uncovers how pirates communicated across oceans using flags, lantern codes, cannon signals, messenger ships, coastal informants, and secret symbols carved into ports and taverns. These methods allowed pirate fleets to warn each other of danger, identify allies, track valuable targets, and vanish before naval forces even knew they were there.

From deceptive flag tricks to coded signals only pirates understood, this is the hidden communication network that helped pirates dominate the seas — without ever saying a word.
