Today I am taking you on a real sea adventure – restless, storm-torn seas and tropical, sultry lands full of dangers await us. Woe to those who cannot withstand these hellish conditions. But it was not just anyone – today we are joining a hardened crew of 17th-century pirates. Together we will sail out and hunt for unwary merchant ships under the black flag! Many challenges await us! Regardless of whether it is the Atlantic, the Caribbean or the Indian Sea – together we will prepare our ships for the voyage, gather a loyal crew, equip ourselves with deadly pistols and cutlasses. I cannot promise you that it will be easy – but if our hunt is successful, if we manage to capture a merchant ship filled to the brim with precious goods, our reward will be endless treasures and riches. Today I will tell you about the history of piracy, from antiquity to today, our contemporary times. I will tell you about pirate ships and life on them, about the way pirates operated, what weapons they used, how they attacked other ships, what they did in their free time, and even what they ate during their multi-week voyages. You will learn all about pirate codes, pirate customs, and superstitions. We will deal with the myths associated with piracy. And all this will allow us to understand what is so fascinating about the pirate profession and why piracy is so romanticized in games, books, and films even today, over 200 years after its twilight. Ready? So sharpen your hook, feed your parrot, bite through a hard as a rock, pour yourself a glass of rum and settle comfortably in your cabin - here we go on a pirate hunt!
