It was the perfect location for raids on European and Asian merchant ships. Here, too, in 1695, Henry Every organized one of the largest pirate attacks in history - on the Fateh Mohammed Gang-i-sawai ships - from which he won over 200 million dollars worth of loot!

It is one of the most famous pirate places for a reason. Located in the Caribbean Sea off the coast of Haiti, for years it has been the mainstay of all thieves and bandits, as well as a pirate hideout.
