To understand their plight let’s start with the history of pirates. The act of stealing, burglary, or criminal brutality by the boat or ship attackers from a coastal area to another ship is called piracy. They aim to steal the goods and other shipload goods. Those people or individuals who perform this act are known as Pirates. The ships or boats used for this purpose are named Pirate ships. When we hear the word pirate, we consider them as evil, brutish, daring, and challenging people, but the fact is that the vast majority of them were ordinary people who were compelled to go to crimes to make a living.<\/p>\n
The historical backdrop of piracy goes back over 3000 years, yet its actual history relies upon the importance of the word \u201cPirate\u201d. The word Pirate has different meanings in English. It changes with time. Significantly this word was used almost in the seventeenth century. A Roman student of history Polybius used this word (Pierato) in around 140 BC. The clearest and appropriate meaning of Piracy was defined by the Greek student of history Plutarch in around 100 A.D. He portrayed pirates as the people who assault without law power ships and seashore areas. Piracy was portrayed interestingly, among others, in Homer’s The Iliad and The Odyssey. From very ancient times, they are in history. They usually threatened the owners of ships and pirated goods like olive oil and grains from Roman boats.<\/p>\n
Between the 9th and 11th centuries AD, pirates were generally called “Danes” or “Vikings”. One more famous importance of the word in middle age England was “Ocean Hoodlums.” The significance of the word privateer generally intently attached to the contemporary was laid out in the eighteenth century AD. According to this pirates were named \u201cOutlaws\u201d. It means that soldiers had no permission to kill them.<\/p>\n
Then the first international law of Anti-Pirates was legally made. The main reason behind this step was that they commit a crime in sea or water, not under a specific country or borders.<\/p>\n
